Ricky ponting praises jacques kallis: Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly are considered the greatest cricketers in world cricket.

But Ricky Ponting, one of the successful former captains of Australia, has described a South African player as the world’s greatest cricketer in place of these Indian great players. He is former South African cricketer Jacques Kallis.
Ponting did Kallis’s Tarif
Ponting said on ‘The Hauvi Games’ podcast, “Jacques Kallis is the player who has no match. I don’t mind anyone else. He has scored 13,000 runs, scored 44-45 Test centuries, and has also taken 300 wickets. It is extraordinary to achieve any one of these figures, but Kallis did both. He was a congenital player of cricket. His grip in slip was fantastic and his game was unique. Kallis is the best and least appreciated cricketer, because his nature was calm and he used to come less in the media. “
