Ricky Ponting vs Joe Root

Root is a more rounded player

For sure.. I admire his rounded butt a lot

+1
tougher batting era, much tougher home conditions, a horrible nothing batting lineup at the top that leaves him exposed to new dukes all the time, better attacks in respective primes and yet equivalent stats

I'd say I'll rate Root a bit higher if he has a great Ashes coming, but I'm afraid that's analysis by checklist.

a bit higher if he has a great ashes down under is crazy

Joe Root seems to have a better record though

A bit too soon to make this comparison, IMO. It will be another 3 years before we can properly gauge Root.
I will say that I was more fearful for my team when watching Ponting bat. Root doesn't strike the same fear, though this feeling could be biased due to the composition of his team.
