Ponting has always been an average captain, he's been able to hide the fact when he had bowlers like McGrath and Warne to bail him out of tight situations, which the aussie cheer squad would always claim as great captaincy......given a situation where his bowlers are kings of the pitch he suddenly struggles to utilise the players he has - makes you think about how great a captain Fleming was - he won with average players!!!
