Ricky Ponting Backs Fraser-McGurk To Be An All-format Player
One Day Cricket: Former Australia cricketer Ricky Ponting has urged selectors to include Jake Fraser-McGurk in the national team across all three formats following the youngster's explosive performances in domestic cricket, particularly in the Sheffield Shield and One Day Cricket for South Australia.
The 21-year-old made his international debut in the ODI against the West Indies at the SCG last Sunday in the series opener. He blasted 41 off 18 balls, including 31 from a seven-ball onslaught that included three sixes in the final ODI of the series, an innings that prompted Ponting to declare with confidence the batter could be an all-format player for Australia.
"I think he's been talked about for a number of years, to be honest. He burst onto the scene here in Victoria, but he didn’t get much more opportunity after that. He moved states this year to South Australia where he's done some pretty amazing things in Shield cricket and in One Day Cricket,"
