Though he was not forthright, veteran batsman Ricky Ponting gave enough indications that he endorses an independent commission to run cricket in Australia.

The acting captain claimed that the Argus review, which shook up cricket at the top level in Australia, has revitalised the national side. Ponting has hinted that the Crawford-Carter report could do the same to Cricket Australia's governance. "I think all of us as players are keen to see what comes of it all. Our playing review has been made very public and everything that came out of the Argus review has been printed and in the papers.

"As a playing group we're really keen to see what comes of the governance review in Cricket Australia," Ponting was quoted as saying by the Daily Telegraph.
