Ricky Ponting forecasts a very bright future for three Indian cricketers

During his interview with former England player Isha Guha on ‘The ICC Review,’ Australian cricket star Ricky Ponting highlighted three young Indian cricketers and made bold predictions about them. Following his retirement from international cricket as a player, Ponting has become a familiar face in the Indian Premier League (IPL), coaching teams such as the Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals. Ponting, who has been watching the growth of several young Indian cricket prospects from afar, has picked openers Prithvi Shaw and Ruturaj Gaikwad, as well as bowler Avesh Khan, as the players to watch.

Prithvi Shaw, who plays for the Delhi Capitals (DC) and is coached by Ponting, has been retained by the franchise ahead of the IPL 2022 Mega Auction. “Everyone’s known a bit about him over the last few of years,” Ponting added, according to ICC, recalling Shaw’s great form in the IPL 2021 season. I believe he is still learning a lot about himself as a person and as a player. To be completely honest, I don’t think I’ve seen much better.” Shaw does not want to bat a lot when he is hitting a lot, but when he is batting well, he wants to bat all the time, according to Ponting.

Ruturaj Gaikwad, according to Ponting, will represent India in all three formats.

Ponting also said that after having a chance early in the season, he ended up being a part of the IPL winning team, praising Chennai Super Kings player Ruturaj Gaikwad. “Everyone thought he was a nice player, more of a technically correct sort of player, but by the end of the IPL, he was doing some wonderful things,” Ponting added, before predicting that Gaikwad will play for India in all three forms in the future.

Meanwhile, Ponting talked about Avesh Khan, an uncapped Indian cricketer who came second in the IPL 2021 in terms of wickets taken.

“Last year, we had Avesh Khan at Delhi Capitals, who had an unbelievable IPL season.” On The ICC Review, Ponting stated, “He has been included in a few of Indian selections.”
