Yeah he was. He was also a massive wanker though.

I've tried really hard to feel as if this is some sort of loss to cricket but I just can't. Undeniably great batsmen he might have been but he just pissed me off too often without ever entertaining me. Kinda how I feel about McGrath. Warne was a dickhead but amusing. Gilchrist was a great player too but he never pissed me off (except for doing too well against us). So it's not just cos Ponting is Australian that I feel this way
