10 fastest runners in the cricket world

#8 Ricky Ponting

Even if Ricky Ponting was half as good a batsman as he was, he would make it to most international teams in his era building on the weight of his achievements as a fielder. He flung himself around like he had no bones to worry about, he chased the ball viciously and always showed the audience that he could do more as a fielder.

Amongst the first to make a name as an extremely fast fielder, speed came to his rescue when he lost his touch with the bat. It elevated his game when he was already primed and set to score big. Ponting’s incredible fitness and agility ensured that he would finish with his game as one of the greatest to have ever played.
