Ponting set to start training
Ricky Ponting is set to start training after a one-month injury lay-off while Nathan Hauritz is hoping to get back into action at the earliest after a radical blood injection treatment, giving some relief to Australia's injury-ridden lead-up to the World Cup.
After getting a first proper pre-season under his belt for the first time in just under two decades, Ricky Ponting is raring to perform in the upcoming Australian home summer, claiming that there will be little excuses as far he is concerned if he fails to recapture his old form.
