Ponting the best cricketer of the year, and he doesn't even make the Test Team? Wtf?

When did Hayden go bald?

How did the player of the year across both forms of the game fail to make the test team of the year?
 
I just noticed that there is one player missing from the team, and that player is Ricky Ponting! Drew, why'd ya do it? How could you do that? :p

For ages - he just has a helmet/hat on all the time. But he had his hair a bit longer at the WC, it looks like he has had a trim.
 
Maybe he should go the the hair treatment place that Shaaaaane and Ricky went to?
 
I'm suprised that Mahela not in the ODI team. He was nominated for all awards but not in the ODI team.

Lankans deserve Spirit of Cricket.
 
Going back five years or so, you seldom find a picture with his hair cropped short.

Usually, his hair is fairly long, obscuring his high hairline.

My bad. I don't think that hair treatment works.

Really?

Last year after making 164.

Just off topic for a second, but can you see the scar on his right cheek from when he was hit by Harmison. Still quite visible.

The Test team was posted on Cricinfo minus Punter because that's the way it was announced. Had they added Ponting as the Test team's captain it would have ruined the surprise of whom won the award.

So no one noticed enough to post it better? Strange.
