Ricky Ponting feeling ‘fresh and ready’ for the World Cup

Australian skipper Ricky Ponting is fresh and ready to lead Australia to their fourth consecutive World Cup title. He had suffered an injury during the Ashes as his finger had broken, but now has recovered completely.

“I’m feeling fresh after a month on the sidelines,” Ponting told reporters before flying out of Sydney. “I’m obviously looking forward to getting back into proper training and more importantly back into international cricket.

“It’s been a while between games for me and sitting back watching the guys play has been pretty difficult, but to see them play as well as they have has been very satisfying. I am very proud of what they did and we are in good shape at the moment. We’ve just got to keep improving in the next few weeks and make sure we are right at the big end of the tournament.”
