Ricky Ponting – Born in 1974

Ricky Ponting’s face has graced the many walls of cricket lovers not just in Australia, but also around the world, because he was just that good. He was the captain of the Australian national cricket team back in their “golden era” and would eventually retire with his head held high. The Tasmanian native then embarked on a career in coaching, working with both national and international teams, which keeps his on his toes, but he’s at home in Australia. There was a time when the international media made fun of his looks, but he managed to shut them up with his on-field performance.
