However, this injury could not stop Australia from winning the match and the team won by 35 runs, but Ponting came to bat at number 9 in the second innings in this match. So now during a discussion with Channel 7 in the ongoing Pink Ball Test match at Gabba Brisbane, in which Kemar Roach was also involved, Ricky Ponting said – I have always said that Kemar (Roach) is a lethal bowler. They owe me about $1.5 million. Because he was bought into the IPL immediately after that spell (Ponting’s injury). On that tour, he bowled lethally not only in Perth but also in Adelaide. On the other hand, when Kemar Roach was questioned about this, he said – It is just about expressing yourself and enjoying the game while remaining young.
