Ponting says Labuschagne’s position in Australia Test side ‘untenable’

Australia were given a jolt when they lost their first Test to Bangladesh at home and thus only ended up drawing the two-match series 1-1 after winning the second. Their next assignment is now a daunting three-match Test series against South Africa, the team that beat them in the 2024 World Test Championship final and former captain Ricky Ponting feels that there will be a few changes in the side going into that tour.

The 51-year-old has said that Marnus Labuschagne in particular could be dropped. “This has been a very dominant side for a long period of time but I think they have been carrying few guys through the last couple of years,” said Ponting on Sky Sports.
