Ponting predicts playing XIs for final Ashes Test
ICC Hall of Famer Ricky Ponting has used the latest episode of The ICC Review to predict the changes England and Australia will make for the final Ashes Test at The Oval and made a call on who he thinks will win in south London.
Ponting’s former side arrives in the nation’s capital holding on to a slender 2-1 series lead and need to avoid defeat at the iconic London venue to become just the second Australian side this century to win an Ashes series on England soil.
The fitness of a host of key players will be monitored prior to the start of the Test on Thursday and will determine the make-up of both sides and Ponting thinks changes will likely be kept to a minimum.
