Ponting says it all

“I was surprised Panesar didn’t start and I couldn’t really work out why Read didn’t start, either. He certainly looks the part with the gloves and he did OK in the Pakistan series with the bat. At the end of the day, you have to pick your best players and in the last couple of Tests it became pretty apparent that Read is a better keeper than Jones. When those sort of things happen in a team, it unsettles a few players.”

I don’t actually need to say anything else, do I? I just hope someone calls Ponting as an expert witness at the inquest. Full article by Angus Fraser at The Telegraph.
