Cricket Masterclass: The art of attacking batting with Gilchrist, Pietersen and Ponting

[@salty-rhombus2858]

Vaughan's actually pretty great at moving the conversation around, and bringing in each of the three talkers. Some people talk over their co-hosts, he really enables them

As an Aussie it's really warming and reaffirming to read the comments below especially in regards to the love and respect Ricky Ponting has amongst fans world-wide. Alan Border, Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting were three hard-nosed, ultra-competitive captains....legends! BTW, great series of Masterclasses!

[@jetpark3743]

We love them. As well as others from other countries

[@rvs1444]

Steve Waugh is arguably the greatest captain of all time. In the words of David Boon "the man who revolutionised the way Australian cricket will be played forever". True legend!!!

[@harishg1507]

@@rvs1444 Steve Waugh did inherit a world beating team from Mark Taylor which he turned into an absolute dominating force in the game. Mark Taylor is whom I considered the greatest captain of all time along with Imran Khan. He was instrumental in turning a young Warne and McGrath into becoming the most brutal match winning combination in world cricket and also he was the first captain to beat west indies at their home in nearly 16 years which is as great an achievement as that of Greame Smith whose South African team became the first team to beat Australia in Australia in almost 16 years . And for all the great things Steve Waugh's team achieved they still could not beat India in India which he himself said many times as the final frontier for his Aussie team .

I much enjoyed it! Just getting into Cricket this last week - Wikipedia and KZbin are grand! Doodle Cricket too! Levity aside, what I liked most about this video is how these masters interacted. I'm looking for egos and one-upsmanship to emerge and they checked that at the door. Respect for one another and collaboration on instruction were evident. Each was distinct in expression, unique in perspective, but committed to cooperative instruction. They didn't speak as one man: they supported the aim of the session positively. Well done!

Great clip. Videos like this make me quite nostalgic for the great Australian teams of the 1990s and 2000s. KP made England watchable latterly from a fans perspective. Don't know what it is, but something seems to have been lost over the last few years. Windies decline, Aussies average, England usual mediocrity, the rest indistinct from each other. These things come in cycles, hopefully a cricket-renaissance is not too far away.
