#7 Ricky Ponting

Ricky Ponting

Ricky Ponting cemented his place as one of the most aggressive middle-order batsmen in Test cricket. A prolific run-getter for the Australians, Ponting had all the shots in his armory to unnerve the opposition. Ponting was an exceptional player against fast bowlers and the best puller of his generation.

Once he got his eye in, 'Punter' capitalized on his starts and scored some mammoth tons for the Aussies. He was among leading run scorers in Test cricket for almost a decade and brought up tons of runs at a brisk pace.
