If Johnston wins the AB medal, will he be the worst winner ever?

I've always thought Ponting was an average captain who inherited a champion team, but at the same time the selectors keep giving him 3 cards and expect him to make a full house.

When McGrath and Warne were in the team then playing guys like Clarke, Symonds and Hussey as the 5th bowler was a viable option, but now it's asking for trouble.

I know Clarke/Hussey have been quite economical in this game, but without a genuine 5th bowler there isn't much else Ponting can do except give Johnson and Tait the ball in this situation.

hussey went for 20 off 4 overs ... not economical at all

johnson dropped taylor too and should have swallowed it up like it was training

No- the Kiwis just haven't been aggressive- makes him look better than he has been
