Cricket fans questioned Ricky Ponting about Ishant Sharma’s 2008 spell after he said that Andrew Flintoff’s Ashes over was the best he had ever faced.
England’s Andrew Flintoff bowled a scintillating over to Ricky Ponting in the 2005 Ashes series at Edgbaston. He kept varying his inswingers and outswingers that made the Australian look like a schoolkid. Ponting later retweeted the video saying that the over was the toughest he ever faced.

Viru insisted on one final try with Ishant before pulling him out of the spell. https://t.co/Fax1nAXlWh
