Ricky Ponting Vows To Fight For His Place In Australian Team

Melbourne, Nov 24: Under pressure to retire following his prolonged lean patch, veteran batsman Ricky Ponting has vowed to fight for his place in the Australian Test team ahead of the upcoming series against New Zealand.

Ponting is coming off a lean 24 months with the bat, averaging just 14 in his 13 innings before scoring a crucial 62 against South Africa in Johannesburg this week.

"Of course (I want to keep playing). I really enjoy it and always have," Ponting said after arriving home from South Africa.

"It's a great team to be a part of at the moment. I want to be around and hopefully be able to have some sort of impact on the way the team plays If I keep doing my job, then hopefully I keep getting picked," he added.
