Top 5 game-changing run-outs of all time

#2 Ricky Ponting v England, Ashes 4th Test, 2005, Nottingham

Ricky Ponting was in supreme touch before being run out

In a series that turned the Ashes rivalry on its head for years to come, Ricky Ponting's run-out in the 2nd innings of the 4th Test is perhaps one of the most significant events that went on to impact the eventual result. It was controversial as well because the run-out had been affected by substitute Gary Pratt and the Australians had previously complained about England's practice of bringing in substitutes to give their bowlers a rest.

Following on, Australia had started well and Ponting was batting brilliantly on 48, when he set off for a run after Michael Clarke had pushed the ball towards cover. Ponting, always a quick runner, ran straightaway but substitute fielder Pratt picked up the ball and threw down the stumps in one motion to run him out. Ponting was seen hurling abuses towards the English dressing room as he was walked off.
