Ponting Predicts Australia’s Squad For 2027 Ashes
Speaking on 7 Cricket, the 51-year-old made only minimal changes to the current Test setup, placing his faith in the experience and durability of senior campaigners Steve Smith and Nathan Lyon.
Both endured injury setbacks during the ongoing 2025–26 Ashes, with Lyon featuring in only a couple of Tests and Smith missing one match, but have firmly dismissed retirement speculation, and their proven success in English conditions further strengthened Ponting’s stance.
