Nielsen stands by Ponting's decision on over rate

Australia coach Tim Nielsen stood by skipper Ricky Ponting's decision to use part-timers to step up the over rate instead of bringing on his fast bowlers after they had India in trouble in the final Test on Sunday. India were 166 for six in their second innings at tea on day four of the fourth Test, but Ponting, whose team needed to win to square the series, still chose to bring on Mike Hussey and Michael Clarke for 10 overs in a bid to improve their over rate.
