Gambit Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 :hysterical: @ yob Punter Link to comment
Toony™® Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I have no doubt ponting would have cost more if he wasnt aussie captain and obliged to tour pakistan as captain. - hence ambassador of cricket australia. He cant say what Symonds said because of him being aussie captain. Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Is he threatning Symonds with this statement. Symonds is not going to like these comments and yob ponting sounds bitter "It would actually be some sort of breach of a Cricket Australia contract, I would imagine. I think that's how it is set out at the moment, that you are to make yourself available for any international games that are scheduled to be played. I think that's how the Cricket Australia contract reads now. Whether it's unfair or not, we've all signed off on it." Link to comment
16 str8 Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 $400 000 seems pretty good, considering the amount of anger his success has generated in India. And add in the little problem that he is unlikely to play a single match in the tournament and it seems like a decent deal. Link to comment
Zakhmi Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I thought I might have been able to attract a little more: Ponting Australia captain Ricky Ponting is disappointed at the low price he attracted at the Indian Premier League players' auction, which saw him being sold for much less than the likes of compatriots Cameron White and David Hussey. Shah Rukh Khan's Kolkata team bought Ponting for US $400,000, which is US $300,000 and US $100,000 less than Hussey and White, who are not even regular members of the Australian team. Add to it' date=' Ponting is also a cry baby :hysterical:[/quote'] you are right, look at it ^ Link to comment
yoda Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 $400 000 seems pretty good, considering the amount of anger his success has generated in India. And add in the little problem that he is unlikely to play a single match in the tournament and it seems like a decent deal. He won't make that if he plays less or no matches at all. I read somewhere that they will make 25% of the money if they play less than 4/5 games. Link to comment
Zakhmi Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 that means he is going to be empty handed by the time the tourney finishes. :giggle: Link to comment
jaideep Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 the cheat deserved it after what happened at the sydney test...i am disappointed at symonds being one of the highest bids...both ponting and symonds are not worth a single dime no matter how big a match winners they may be Link to comment
msb1991 Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ponting does not sound gutted. Ricky Ponting says he is disappointed (not distraught or upset, just disappointed) he did not sell for more at Wednesday's Indian Premier League (IPL) auction, where he was valued nearly US$1 million lower than Andrew Symonds. However, Ponting said there would be no friction in the Australian dressing room following the bidding war, during which he went to Kolkata for $400,000. Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ponting does not sound gutted. An astute person can read btwn the lines. He may be more then gutted. Not only has his pocket taking a bashing but his ego as well at being not rated. Cry baby ponting must be crying tonight as he sips at his weak aussie beer! Link to comment
fineleg Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Yes, the cry baby is not gonna come out and openly say he is "gutted"...this is the max the baby will cry in public. Link to comment
kumble_rocks Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ponting has a right to be upset just as we have a right to ridicule him . Link to comment

Zakhmi Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ponting has a right to be upset just as we have a right to ridicule him . this means, his statement was sarcastic. Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Just about sums you up! Please clarify! I assume you are saying I am correct as per usual and you are captivated by my posts.:two_thumbs_up: Link to comment
Shehezaada Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 another failure! Ponting better watch out or Kolkata might not even take him! Link to comment
