Poor India never stood a chance that day. Ponting made it look so easy. As an Aussie, I know he was revered across the world of cricket. An amazing player.

Ponting never smiled much, but when he did he made sure he had broken millions of hearts. Most of the time it was Indians who were in the receiving end.

A very very proud Tasmanian who can claim Ricky Ponting - aka Punter as one of very best. Was awesome in all formats, superb fieldsman and Captain. He has done us so very proud. His cricket nouse also if fantastic 😍👌🤗
This is my favourite video of Ricky Ponting batting EVER. Single-handedly won the world cup for the Aussie's with some crunching sixes & free-spirited hitting that imploded the opposition, in what can only be described as: Total Cricket.
The wisden 100 rankings for best individual odi innings was done in 2002, and it hasn't been updated yet. But wisden said that if it was updated, this innings would be placed at no.2! What a performance.
For me , even I was not born in that era, not saying being as a Indian but the number one innings of all time should be Kapil Dev 175 against Zimbabwe in 1983 world cup. Also his innings came as a victory for India. Sometimes great innings comes but in a losing cause, Sachin 175 against Australia chasing was such innings, brilliant but not in top list.

+strattus99 Ponting is great but this is not the greatest ODI innings ever. Infact its not event the greatest WC innings I've seen. Aravinda de silva's 107* was the best. It was against a world class side (with Warne, McGrath and Flemming) and in a pressure situation (Sri Lanka were 2 wickets down and in big trouble). Also SL had never won a wc and were not a world class side. De Silva's pressure innings of 107* and 66 in the semi's were better than this. I would also take Gilly's and Steve Waugh's century against SA over this. As far as world cups go. Indian bolwing was very weak on this particular day.
Best fieldsman i've ever seen. One of the best ever captains. Champion batsman. When he hit 100 tests his average was 60...and made two tons in his 100th test match. To watch him alongside Damien Martyn was always a treat for the lovers of class batting.

Just look at the shot, hear the sound of the bat makes when it contact the ball. Clean hitting, fearless batting. Look at his body how fit he is. One of the greatest innings to lift the world cup. India lost even before they went to bat. Small man from looks but look at his eyes. Almost played the same kind of innings in 2011 worldcup and luckily India had Raina in place of Yusuf that stopped him from getting another world cup
This is the match I remember watching when i was in school , it was my summer break and i had gone to Bareilly , my maternal home , there was a small tv in the living room in 2003 and we were all crowded near it watching ponting play and oh that one handed six, whenever i watch it I remember myself sitting on the floor in front of that tv
This was the match when I was in class 5 and this match was related to the famous rumour which was spring bat rumour it went because pointing was playing the hard knock off 140 at the era of 2000 was just passed and 359 was one of the highest score in world cup I watch this match and I was in shock when India lose every one was blaming Ricky pointing that he is having spring in his bat because he was hitting each and every ball to the six runs which was awful and pathetic to watch but I respect Ricky pointing from the bottom of my heart because he was passionate for winning match and he was the player who can do anything else for winning the match hats off to his spirit he created the environment of winning matches at regular pace when he was captain no one beats Australia every team was minnows when they face them
In this match sachin got out on 4 runs and ricky scored 140 runs . No matter sachin has scored many more centuries and international runs than ricky but these are matches which show who is big match player and who is not .
he won 3 wc 2 as well as captain he was a great batsman great fielder great match winner so no doubt one of the gretest cricketer of all time.sachin gretest batsman but not gretest cricketer
@@vijayyadav-fk1dc true talent, problem with Indian fan's. To much jealous & ego against Australia cricket what they achieved not only you there are lots of idiots. Australia for me best cricketing country history wise & quality players they produced
Ricky Ponting was a far superior cricket player to Tendulkar IMO. Not only is Ponting the second highest run scorer and has the second most test centuries, he's the great Test captain of all time with the most Test wins of any captain, he's also and easily the greatest fielder of all time, so many incredible catches. Just look at how many ICC World Cups Pointing was led Australia to win.
mark kearney Disclaimer: I'm not a Sachin fan nor an Indian fan. But in case you didn't know, Sachin can bowl and has 5 wicket hauls and about 100 wickets. So he is a better cricketer obviously ..
+Darth Immortallis Lara never regarder as the greatest lol , Sachin was called GOD by Ponting's fellow cricket lol , Lara admires Sachin and wants his son to be like Sachin.....in the technique concerns , Ponting is a pure front foot player , where Sachin has no weakness whatsoever ,,,,,, Sachin makes everyone look like a small one infront of his batting
+Darth Immortallis and Dravid is no where near Sachin , even in his favourite format of the game , Sachin ( Avg 53 , SR 52 ) , Dravid ( Avg 52 , SR 42 ) Sachin had to change his game due to dangerous tennis elbow injury from agressive to stroke play.... and the team Ponting captained can be done by even a benchwarmer lol , even Michael Clarke said that " even my dog can lead that team " enough kiddo ? technically there is no one near to Sachin in the cricket history until his time
you should also chose those bowlers against ( Zaheer Khan in his 3rd int year and Srinath in his end of the career and those young weakass bowlers lol )
From 2003 to till date, I have never ever seen the highlights of this match and I intend to keep it that way. This innings was a nightmare to a child like me.who very joyfully given his 10th standard final exam on that month of March. Still remember our final Marathi paper was postponed to 20th March and on Sunday, 23rd March we had this final. I was very much ready for watching India takes the revenge with Aus for their 2nd group game which India were bundled out for 125. Humiliating defeat. This was also the reason Ganguly chose to Bowl first and he had a belief that Team India will chase down any target which Australia will set as they chased a year ago in NatWest final. The main culprit of this match was Zaheer, people might think I am going harsh on him, but I have live witness that horrible first over, who bowls this much extras in the first over of world cup finals. I guess it was 13/15 runs first over, where Aussie hardly broke the sweat. That set up the innings for them very nicely. 😊 India and Australia both finalists played 11 matches. Australia won all 11 India won 9 out of 11 and lost 2 against the Australia. At that moment in time, Australia were unbreakable and immovable force. Thanks to time they are now bit soft or may be I can say other teams like India and England have become tough.
Honestly Ponting is the best legend ever. As India has more population in the world and among cricketing countries also. If Ponting were from India he must me said as god of cricket, not Sachin....
Ponting has good team support from Australia but Sachin alone scored 65 runs in 1996 World Cup Semi finals, Without 6 half centuries and 1 century from Sachin India won't even in 2003 World Cup finals.
Ponting what a player he was . Pure class . Such a big match player . What a captain he was . He wants to win at any cost. Kohli is nothing in front of him . He always perfomed in big matches . Even in 2011 wc he had scored century but no other players scored big runs against India otherwise aus won't lose that match too
@@santoshvishwakarma5105the guy is different beast in knockout matches or final matches of bilateral series if his team fails thats a different story but punter never got underpressuee in these situations
You can be best in ODIs .....You can be best in Tests ... You can be best anything in cricket but when it comes to knock outs and finals no one can come close Australian players They never choke Like anyother teams
This partnership deserves a full video by itself. 234 in a world cup final. There's a bit of slogging, but even when slogging these two guys could somehow make it look classy.
this was the bigger worldcup ...back in 2003..they played group stages...then super six...them semi...then final....so winning this was a big achievement...compared to dhonis in 2011 which was just few group match..quater..semi ..final
+Matt Hafey i laughed way too hard at the commentator saying : 49th over You would have thought that by now Zaheer Khan would have learnt that thats not the length haha
Only for this man I started watching cricket how to play learn and much more I was 10 year old when I watched that final the way he hitting I just love it and it's hidden on my mind like yesterday fabulous I watched every match of him until he retired after that my craze of cricket fade out
Australia was 3 down for 10. Sri Lanka was bowling really well. This fella didn't gave his wicket and made a unforgettable partnership with Symonds. Their final score was 360. 😐 What an amazing player 👌👌👌
Ricky's cricket gear still looks brand new , attractive ,stylish and best cricket gear of all time. This kit suits Ricky more than any other player . How many of you agree to this?
The same Ponting Scored century in 2011 World Cup Quarter finals but Australia eliminated because of lack of support from Teammates - A single Players contribution never results in victory.

One of the night mare matches I had seen Ricky ponting dominance in world cricket can't be matched he was just punching sheer leadership quality look at his stance he's just gauging every where complete resilience
Childhood was scary for me but today I m enjoying virat,Rohit,kl,bumrah,Shamu,jaddu,Iyer,pant ND more today we are the champions I wept when he played that innings but now it feels awesome
People talking about Sharjah. It was a batsmen's paradise. Lara scored 169 in Sharjah before Sachin's 143 and 134. Nobody knows because Lara is not Indian. Lara also scored 153 against great Pak bowling at Sharjah in 93. Nobody knows that. We only think Sachin could score.. Jayasurya scored 189 against us in 2000 in Sharjah. Sachin was great though in those 2 Sharjah innings. No doubt. But fact is it was an easy pitch.
Got my Pepsi bottle my Lays chips and Kurkure to enjoy India on finals and this knock shattered everything .. as a 13 year old this day was worst than my break up in my 20s 😂😂
Ponting never faced McGrath and Lee and Warne and Gillespie as his opponents. Ponting was troubled by Ishant, whom Sachin smashed brutally in domestic cricket. Between Sachin and Ponting, Ponting will always be the second fiddle. Put Ponting in India team and Sachin in Australia and Sachin would have gotten even more hundreds, facing Indian bowlers and not Aussies.
only indians put sachin upfront ( which does not really matter much). There are/were many better players than sachin. Dravid is one of them. Ponting is miles ahead of sachin
@Raghav Dadhich agreed, his cluelessness against Mcgrath was outstanding. I still remember in 2001 tour against South Africa, how frequently he got out to Pollock, with straight bowls. In World Cup 2003, he was genuinely struggling against Lee in the league match (And he struggled against Sohaibh akhtar in one-day after 1999 test series, when not so recognised good batsman of fast bowling like Ajau Jadeja didn't have issues with Sohaibh's pace). He was Warne's bunny as well. The only place where he was great was in England in swinging conditions.
UNDER PRESSURE PERFORMANCE IN WORLD CUPS (QUARTER FINALS,SEMI FINALS, FINALS - ONLY 50+ RUNS CONSIDERED AS BEST PERFORMANCE) :- Ponting - 140 runs in 2003 World Cup finals , 104 runs in 2011 World Cup Quarter finals (140+104=244 runs) / Sachin scored 65 runs in 1996 World Cup Semi finals, 83 runs in 2003 World Cup Semi finals,53 runs in 2011 World Cup Quarter finals,85 runs in 2011 World Cup Semi finals (65+83+53+85 = 286 runs).
Sachin is a better batsman over Ponting, but overall Ponting is better in terms of leadership, fielding, his ability in the field to take catches, direct throws, speed was on another level. Sachin was a miserable captain, couldn't perform well with the bat whilrle leading. So this all makes Ponting better and more successful than Sachin.

The greatest captain and batsmen ever in cricket history
This is the match I remember watching when i was in school , it was my summer break and i had gone to Bareilly , my maternal home , there was a small tv in the living room in 2003 and we were all crowded near it watching ponting play and oh that one handed six, whenever i watch it I remember myself sitting on the floor in front of that tv
This was the match when I was in class 5 and this match was related to the famous rumour which was spring bat rumour it went because pointing was playing the hard knock off 140 at the era of 2000 was just passed and 359 was one of the highest score in world cup I watch this match and I was in shock when India lose every one was blaming Ricky pointing that he is having spring in his bat because he was hitting each and every ball to the six runs which was awful and pathetic to watch but I respect Ricky pointing from the bottom of my heart because he was passionate for winning match and he was the player who can do anything else for winning the match hats off to his spirit he created the environment of winning matches at regular pace when he was captain no one beats Australia every team was minnows when they face them
Ricky Ponting is the player of big matches: He never dissapointed the team when they need it!
Also he was captain... more pressure than a normal player
Ricky Ponting best batter after ABD
Part Cummins is also as like as ricky
What an amazing captain's innings. Just wow
Pontings straight sixes are so clean. Really unique technique
Up there with the best this guy i tell you. absolutely ruthless cricketer. I really liked Ricky's approach to the game never scared!!
Stop comparing and fighting. Start enjoying!!
5:50 The best six in the innings imo
That six was a statement
That was victory signal❤❤❤
I was 11 when I saw this final.. Still this innings makes me cry.. 😭
Now you have one from travis head to help ease the pain of this one hahahahaha
In this match sachin got out on 4 runs and ricky scored 140 runs . No matter sachin has scored many more centuries and international runs than ricky but these are matches which show who is big match player and who is not .
Ricky Ponting the Greatest Skipper And Batsman in WC history ♥️😍Goosebumps 140 ♥️🤩Love you Punter 💥
he won 3 wc 2 as well as captain he was a great batsman great fielder great match winner so no doubt one of the gretest cricketer of all time.sachin gretest batsman but not gretest cricketer
and don't forget how big a cheater he is

Why is everyone here comparing him with Sachin? Just admire this gem of an innings and respect both the legends.
We can't compare him because sachin is not comparable with ponting ponting is far higher than him

Sachin was a good player.but Ricky was the best
Ricky Ponting was a far superior cricket player to Tendulkar IMO. Not only is Ponting the second highest run scorer and has the second most test centuries, he's the great Test captain of all time with the most Test wins of any captain, he's also and easily the greatest fielder of all time, so many incredible catches. Just look at how many ICC World Cups Pointing was led Australia to win.
Sir please don't compare Tendulkar with Ponting. They both are legends and are best in there own way.
K Joshi
He said cricketer, not purely batsman, and he's right.
mark kearney Disclaimer: I'm not a Sachin fan nor an Indian fan.
But in case you didn't know, Sachin can bowl and has 5 wicket hauls and about 100 wickets. So he is a better cricketer obviously ..
+Darth Immortallis Lara never regarder as the greatest lol , Sachin was called GOD by Ponting's fellow cricket lol , Lara admires Sachin and wants his son to be like Sachin.....in the technique concerns , Ponting is a pure front foot player , where Sachin has no weakness whatsoever ,,,,,, Sachin makes everyone look like a small one infront of his batting
+Darth Immortallis and Dravid is no where near Sachin , even in his favourite format of the game , Sachin ( Avg 53 , SR 52 ) , Dravid ( Avg 52 , SR 42 )
Sachin had to change his game due to dangerous tennis elbow injury from agressive to stroke play....
and the team Ponting captained can be done by even a benchwarmer lol , even Michael Clarke said that " even my dog can lead that team " enough kiddo ?
technically there is no one near to Sachin in the cricket history until his time
He deserves BHARAT RATNA for this superb innings :P

Stupidest comment I've ever seen
I would take Ricky over Sachin due to his ability to win matches single handedly.
you should also chose those bowlers against ( Zaheer Khan in his 3rd int year and Srinath in his end of the career and those young weakass bowlers lol )
Ricky just one two games on his own in all his career. Sachin won 8 single handedly.
It wud b same for Sachin if he was in Australian teams
And I would take Kohli over Ponting to chase impossible targets batting second under pressure.
@@jasluvdeepsingh8491 Not in World cup
5:47 That six is 🤩🤩Amazing
A master class innings that runnied the dreams of so called Indian Dada
This innings alone made him one of the greatest ever🔥
This happened on 23-03-2003. Today is 23-03-2023. Twenty years passed. Memories are still fresh. Unable to forget the date.
20 years later and its Travis Head taking Indian souls. Australia has another 3 Cricket World Cups since this match.
this was my first world cup experience and what an innings to take out indians even before the match started
From 2003 to till date, I have never ever seen the highlights of this match and I intend to keep it that way.
This innings was a nightmare to a child like me.who very joyfully given his 10th standard final exam on that month of March.
Still remember our final Marathi paper was postponed to 20th March and on Sunday, 23rd March we had this final.
I was very much ready for watching India takes the revenge with Aus for their 2nd group game which India were bundled out for 125.
Humiliating defeat.
This was also the reason Ganguly chose to Bowl first and he had a belief that Team India will chase down any target which Australia will set as they chased a year ago in NatWest final.
The main culprit of this match was Zaheer, people might think I am going harsh on him, but I have live witness that horrible first over, who bowls this much extras in the first over of world cup finals.
I guess it was 13/15 runs first over, where Aussie hardly broke the sweat.
That set up the innings for them very nicely.
😊
India and Australia both finalists played 11 matches.
Australia won all 11
India won 9 out of 11 and lost 2 against the Australia.
At that moment in time, Australia were unbreakable and immovable force.
Thanks to time they are now bit soft or may be I can say other teams like India and England have become tough.
Some players are very hard hitting some are very clinical. ricky is both of them
Honestly Ponting is the best legend ever. As India has more population in the world and among cricketing countries also. If Ponting were from India he must me said as god of cricket, not Sachin....
Ponting has good team support from Australia but Sachin alone scored 65 runs in 1996 World Cup Semi finals, Without 6 half centuries and 1 century from Sachin India won't even in 2003 World Cup finals.
Ponting what a player he was . Pure class . Such a big match player . What a captain he was . He wants to win at any cost. Kohli is nothing in front of him . He always perfomed in big matches . Even in 2011 wc he had scored century but no other players scored big runs against India otherwise aus won't lose that match too

You can be best in ODIs .....You can be best in Tests ... You can be best anything in cricket but when it comes to knock outs and finals no one can come close Australian players They never choke Like anyother teams
You were proved right again this year
every indian kid will remember this innings.this was the day when many hearts were being broken🌝.bahut mara dhaga khol diya ekdam ricky ponting ne🌚
This was the best day of my life period.
This partnership deserves a full video by itself. 234 in a world cup final. There's a bit of slogging, but even when slogging these two guys could somehow make it look classy.
Childhood conspiracy theory : He had a spring inside his bat. Lol
Yes bro😂
Imagine if he had the bats they make these days!
Sahi kha yahi asa hi kha gya tha🤣

Yes 😂
this was the bigger worldcup ...back in 2003..they played group stages...then super six...them semi...then final....so winning this was a big achievement...compared to dhonis in 2011 which was just few group match..quater..semi ..final
I still remember his Test debut. There's no way that ball was hitting the stumps.
Match winning innings at right time is a mixture of right talent and right stress handling capacity
Lol I like how at the end the commentator almost calls Damien Martyn Ricky Martin :P
+Matt Hafey i laughed way too hard at the commentator saying : 49th over You would have thought that by now Zaheer Khan would have learnt that thats not the length haha
Only for this man I started watching cricket how to play learn and much more I was 10 year old when I watched that final the way he hitting I just love it and it's hidden on my mind like yesterday fabulous I watched every match of him until he retired after that my craze of cricket fade out
This innings bring back my childhood nightmare.

@@karanv4226 Exactly. You said it 😂
This is the innings that broke all Indians heart and made them 😢
People talking about Sharjah. It was a batsmen's paradise. Lara scored 169 in Sharjah before Sachin's 143 and 134. Nobody knows because Lara is not Indian. Lara also scored 153 against great Pak bowling at Sharjah in 93. Nobody knows that. We only think Sachin could score.. Jayasurya scored 189 against us in 2000 in Sharjah.
Sachin was great though in those 2 Sharjah innings. No doubt. But fact is it was an easy pitch.
Everything was gold be it cricket and be it commentary.
Ricky ponting most successful captain of cricket ira

Stunning innings 💓
Got my Pepsi bottle my Lays chips and Kurkure to enjoy India on finals and this knock shattered everything .. as a 13 year old this day was worst than my break up in my 20s 😂😂
lol
ponting over sachin any day. the guy had heart n balls..something sachin severely lacks!
ice in his veins? lol
you need to look at sachin"s knock at sharjah....the sandstorm how he single handedly stole match away from aussies
Ponting never faced McGrath and Lee and Warne and Gillespie as his opponents. Ponting was troubled by Ishant, whom Sachin smashed brutally in domestic cricket.
Between Sachin and Ponting, Ponting will always be the second fiddle. Put Ponting in India team and Sachin in Australia and Sachin would have gotten even more hundreds, facing Indian bowlers and not Aussies.
1998 final??
Off course he had backing of som great bowlers nd fielders to mke him luk like an angel
Great innings but equally shocking Indian bowling. Full tosses and short and wide balls galore.
only indians put sachin upfront ( which does not really matter much). There are/were many better players than sachin. Dravid is one of them. Ponting is miles ahead of sachin
You must be Alien🤪
@Raghav Dadhich I give credit to Gilchrist who scored 8 runs an over when Ponting, Martin came into bat. this allowed them to settle easily.
@Raghav Dadhich agreed, his cluelessness against Mcgrath was outstanding. I still remember in 2001 tour against South Africa, how frequently he got out to Pollock, with straight bowls. In World Cup 2003, he was genuinely struggling against Lee in the league match (And he struggled against Sohaibh akhtar in one-day after 1999 test series, when not so recognised good batsman of fast bowling like Ajau Jadeja didn't have issues with Sohaibh's pace). He was Warne's bunny as well. The only place where he was great was in England in swinging conditions.
UNDER PRESSURE PERFORMANCE IN WORLD CUPS (QUARTER FINALS,SEMI FINALS, FINALS - ONLY 50+ RUNS CONSIDERED AS BEST PERFORMANCE) :- Ponting - 140 runs in 2003 World Cup finals , 104 runs in 2011 World Cup Quarter finals (140+104=244 runs) / Sachin scored 65 runs in 1996 World Cup Semi finals, 83 runs in 2003 World Cup Semi finals,53 runs in 2011 World Cup Quarter finals,85 runs in 2011 World Cup Semi finals (65+83+53+85 = 286 runs).
Sachin is a better batsman over Ponting, but overall Ponting is better in terms of leadership, fielding, his ability in the field to take catches, direct throws, speed was on another level. Sachin was a miserable captain, couldn't perform well with the bat whilrle leading. So this all makes Ponting better and more successful than Sachin.
Most brutal odi innings ever played in a worldcup knockout. Total carnage. Look at the way he smacks and slogs Zaheer and all :-|
