The seasoned campaigner shares a close relationship with several players in the side. During a recent interaction with cricket.com.au, Ponting shed light on his relationship with dynamic all-rounder Marcus Stoinis. He labeled the right-hander a very deep thinker, which is why he does not want to feed him too much information.
Ponting opined that Stoinis has been in and out of Australia’s national side and has been unable to find space in their batting line-up. However, when it comes to the Delhi Capitals, Ponting feels that he has been very clear about Stoinis’ role in the side.
The cricketer-turned-coach added he gives Stoinis clear directions regarding the game. Ponting also revealed that he only interferes with the Delhi Capitals players’ preparations when he feels that they are erring somewhere.
