The Dighton Ponting Show
Australian Captain Ricky Ponting(111) and Michael Dighton (146) steered the Tigers to victory with a record 263-run partnership against NSW at North Sydney oval.
Quote on Dighton by Ricky Ponting:
“He’s really turned his career around actually, a couple of years ago he was out of the side for a while and the last couple of years he’s been back in and become a really consistent run scorer for Tasmania and that’s a really good sign for the team.”
Michael Dighton on Ricky Ponting:
“When you’re batting with Ricky Ponting there’s not a lot of great pressure on you, you can sort of take your time a bit and just wait for the bad ones because you know he’s going to score at a decent rate,”
