Ricky Ponting - Best Aussie


Ricky Ponting today became the highest run-scorer in Test cricket for Australia after moving past Allan Border's mark at Edgbaston.

Ponting started day two of the third Test against England needing eight runs to better Border's mark of 11,174 Test runs and achieved it with a clip through the leg side off Andrew Flintoff.

Australia needed Ponting to make a sizeable contribution today after losing Shane Watson and Mike Hussey to the first two balls of the day, but the captain became Graham Onions' third victim of the morning session when he was caught behind for 38.
