We caught up with the Australian captain Ricky Ponting. We had an insight look at his views and opinons on about the tour. (LH stands for Left Hander)

LH: Are you happy that you will be touring the West Indies?
RP: Well, we have a busy schedule and this is where the World Cup is going to be held so it would be good pracitce on how to used the conditions etc.
LH: Any news on the squads?
RP: Nah mate, I'm not the selector. You should have a chat to Merv Hughes about that one.
LH: Do you think it will be a tough series?
RP: Yes, I do. The West Indies can be very unpredictable and they showed us what they can do in the ICC Champions Trophy in 2004. It should be one of the toughest series since the Ashes, I would think.
LH: Good luck in the series and I hope you can get some runs on the board.
RP: Thanks mate.
