EXCLUSIVE| 'Great recognition of hard work': Ricky Ponting hails Shreyas Iyer’s rise to India T20 captaincy
“I've been the one endorsing him for the role and telling the Indian selectors that if they give him a chance, I don't think they'll be disappointed.
As I said, it's a great achievement.
It's terrific recognition for the hard work he has put in over a long period of time, and I'm sure he'll do a great job as captain of India,” Ponting added.
