Ad

Ricky Ponting made his debut in 1995 and took over as the Australian ODI captain in 2002. He has been a part of three successful World Cup campaigns which also included a 34 match winning streak - a record. He captained Australia at 9 ICC tournaments- three World Cups, 4 Champions Trophies, and two World T20s.

Both of Ponting’s defeat in the World Cup as a captain came during the 2011 World Cup where Australia first lost to Pakistan, thus ending their 12-year winning streak at the tournament before being eliminated by India in the quarter-finals. Ponting was awarded the Man of the Match in his first World Cup final as captain.

He has led Australia in four editions of the Champions Trophy with Australia reaching the semi-finals in the first two tournaments and going on to win the next two. Overall, he has won a record 165 matches as captain.
