Ricky ponting made a waterboy.

http://www.espncricinfo.com/sri-lanka-v-australia-2011/content/image/529463.html?object=516211;page=1
So sad,he is a great player,a legend of the game and was there no one to carry drinks? is this the repect that a legend get?Ricky has had a bad couple of years and people are getting on his back and they are not respecting him.
for me one of the most exciting batsman to watch when he is in prime form and my favourite batsman when he is in scintilating attacking best.
But the way he has been down and out these days really make me feel bad as a fan.
I really hope he scores 500+ runs with 3 centuries in this test series.
comon ricky ponting.

Real Shame to see a sight like that. Ponting should tell them where to go and retire and then the aussies will be in a bigger mess.

4-0, son. Whitewash.

That's quite sad actually.

No shame in carrying drinks for your teammates, not content with putting your players (INDIAN) on a pedestal your doing it to the australian ones as well?

So he's carrying drinks whats the big deal? Its fans like you who treat players like they are some Bollywood Superstars which in turn makes them act like they are.

No everyone agrees with that neon.

I think you'll find most sane people find the idea of how these players are treated, and how much they are paid as abhorrent.

If anyone had actually bothered to watch this series like I did they would know that this is the warm up game and they are playing lots of the fringe aussie players, just look at the scorecard. Hughes, Khawaja and Marsh as batsmen and Lyon, Beer and Copeland as bowlers. Ponting will almost certainly start and I hope Copeland will as well. I am not holding out much hope for either of the spinners.

The team will most probably be this:

Watson
Khawaja/Hughes
Ponting
Clarke
Hussey
Marsh/Hughes
Haddin
Johnson
Beer
Harris
Copeland/Siddle
