When Ricky Ponting and Kevin Pietersen shared a commentary box during the Big Bash League, the former Australia skipper took the chance to ask a few pointed questions
Nothing wrong with being arrogant imo, when you put as your life into something as KP has its difficult to be humble especially when these 'reporters' are pestering him just because they want to print out something that will sell
When will Australia start winning at home against India this summer?? I am sick of watching Queen Kohli crying like a child after picking every winning
Anyone who hits Warney for 6 straight back over his head at Lords when England were collapsing has the right to be confident to the point of almost arrogant!! Nice one KP!
Love Ponting as a pundit . Brilliant communicator , affable , knowledgeable and gives a great interview . Hated him as a player ( being a non-Aussie) but absolutely respect him more hearing his commentary these days ( and he was a great player no doubt ) . Petersen’s a good sport taking on some of these questions ( mind you he’s got to promote his controversial book) but he’s much more open to a player he respects rather than your average journo during this period .
I loved it. Couple of old opponents talking cricket and life. All that was missing was a couple of cold ones. He seemed like an affable sort of bloke to me. As in the comments below, some say arrogant, others confident. I'm sure it was the same in the dressing room. Interesting he said Vaughan was his best Captain. Vaughan also said KP was tricky to manage but so was Flintoff, and that they could both turn a game for you. I think Cook and management couldn't manage him and the easy way out was to axe him. ECB is still the old boys club and having an alternative opinion isn't tolerated. KP was one of the best and I will miss seeing him swagger out to the crease, and I'm an Aussie!
+RayD8or1 Vaughn is on record as saying the people that should have been sacked were the ones who could not handle KP and that includes the England Captain at the time, Strauss. Strauss feared KP, as did Jimmy Anderson and cry baby Broad. They wanted to be the stars.
I couldn't stand KP during the last Ashes series and, as a Stars fan, was not sure whether or not to get behind him when I heard he'd signed, however, the way he has handled himself out here has been nothing but professional and classy and seeing all the information that has come out about the serious problems in the English team has made me convert to being a KP fan. It is now unquestionable that he is the victim in this whole situation and deserves to be in the English side as he is probably the best English cricketer since Botham. Really hope to see him represent England again as long as it doesn't contribute to the Poms winning back the Ashes. Great interview here from both Ponting and Pietersen. Channel 9 take note, the likes of Ponting and others in the commentary box on 10 are really showing up your biggest under-performers. Can we swap KP for Mark Nicholas please?
Such a shame Pietersen's career was cut short for England. He could have become top scorer especially with how the fitness levels are these days it's not abnormal to play unti 36-40-
It's funny how even though there is a fierce rivalry on the pitch there seems to be several examples of good camaraderie between English and Aussie cricketers off the pitch. It's good to see. Ponting is a great interviewer too
@@stevennorris7181 Thanks for that Captain Obvious but remind me again which International Team did he play first class Cricket for? Its ok il wait.....
One should never take a CZcams headline too literally. This sounded really interesting, but there is no sign of a grill, human sacrifice or cannibalism here.
Interesting Conversation.. KP was all about man management... his numbers don't lie... he should be there in that ODI squad.... We saw what ENG did against AUS in the 1st ODI....
Great to listen to, it would've been nice if the clip could have kept on rolling and they could have continued discussing the team dynamic/personalities. We have still never really been told why KP was left out of the side... I guess the ECB just thought its time to move on and look to the future. And tbf England had a fantastic summer last year at the World Cup, what a final match with NZ!
Quite often the best or most dangerous players in any sport are also the hardest to handle. But a strong captain will find a way to deal with it, and get the results out of that player. I think Vaughan was the only captain of KP that understood this and was willing to absorb all the bad stuff that came with KP.
Ricky is an outstanding cricketer a real gentlemen. What he did there to KP was unnecessary. Kevin is a humble man and he deserves better with an average over 40 in tests he deserves better. Politics shouldn't be in cricket.
Honestly, KP will always be one of my favourites. Honest, aggressive, charismatic and most of all, different (i.e. not another boring pom). Wish he was an aussie.
true i am indian and i really liked the word you used here "different" i would dramatized it slightly and will call him maverick which english media and other media has always said him i dont think english team got full benefit of kevin's talent he had atleast 2 to 3 years left in but sadly couldn't happen
i have to say this, i watched this as a recording after the match, but dayum if i had tuned in to actually catch a live Bbl match and was forced to hear the KP story for a good 8 overs of it; i would have been irritated !!!!
I want Australia to lose every game they play, whoever its against and in whatever format. However, having said that there's no other bunch of players or ex-players who I respect more. They play hard and if they lose they congratulate the opposition - if someone scores big then they congratulate them when they do. Great bunch of professionals... good TV.
My favourite batsmen in that era in one frame. Loved their approach to batting more than the records, but then again when it comes to Punter and KP, records speak for themselves.❤
Was this a job interview and KP looking for acceptance. Lot of subtext in the conversation. This should be part of uni management on leadership skills. Only a place or two let it slip out why KP was in the position he was in...
The betrayal of Strauss cancelled everything for me. Today (well, at the start of Ashes 2023, he’s attacking Crawley, Duckett and Pope. Really mocking them. I don’t understand him.
The best part of the video is that the Heat didn’t lose a wicket for 20 minutes
Jamie Smith haha
Haha
Haha lol
Ponting handled that really well. A true professional.
??
I just wanted them to keep talking. really interesting
6 years, no comments, I’ll be the first
Somehow, Hes likeable but arrogant at the same time.
Nothing wrong with being arrogant imo, when you put as your life into something as KP has its difficult to be humble especially when these 'reporters' are pestering him just because they want to print out something that will sell
People often get 'confidence' confused with 'arrogance'. It's a fine line to walk.
When will Australia start winning at home against India this summer??
I am sick of watching Queen Kohli crying like a child after picking every winning
I thought your comment was about Ponting because Ponting looked far more arrogant in this one lmao! And this is coming from an Aussie
He is very honest and confident in his own abilities, easy to mistake as arrogance. He has the batting record to back it up though.
Anyone who hits Warney for 6 straight back over his head at Lords when England were collapsing has the right to be confident to the point of almost arrogant!! Nice one KP!

I've got nothing against Pieterson, absolute legend and bought the Ashes home that September day in 2005
@@jaguar3248 yeah broad always appears to be a cry baby
Ponting is so sharp and to the point, no wonder he was such a killer captain.
KP went from public enemy number one in Australia to everyone's fav cricketer when he started playing and commentating BBL
Bah. From the title I expected a barbeque
The match was so one-sided boring that even commentators talked about their personal life.
Lmao so true though I forgot about the game and i literally put on the headphones laidback and listened to the commentary.

Henry 52 I only liked this for the last sentence, i mean grats on coming over to team KP and understanding what so many people already knew :P
Henry 52 nice
the best english cricketer since botham hahaha hes south african bro
I would love to see/hear KP commentate in the ashes this year. He seems like a great bloke and is very easy to listen to.
Maxomus he is

Kevin Pietersen aint English.

Its ok il wait.....
Ponting was such a good captain. Good interview
Punter would make up a great journo!
Kev is so right, our captain played the first game of the season hungover this year, caught a blinder at long on though!
both are great players. absolutely brilliant 😃
Kevin Pieterson one of my favorite players what a legend
A rGeat

KP is a legend I miss him play
Ponting and kp, could listen to these guys all day!
One should never take a CZcams headline too literally. This sounded really interesting, but there is no sign of a grill, human sacrifice or cannibalism here.
Portcullis I need to look elsewhere 😒
To be fair, it’s the word KP used in part of a tweet posted after his comms. session with Ricky: “Wow, Punter grilled me!”
Greatest English batsman of all time.....an Enigma Maverick Genius.
Thats a ridiculous sentence
KP wasn't given the chance at going out the way he should. What a joke!
what a great video could watch this all day
Ricky pointing in commentary box just amazing
I think this is a quality interview. Plenty of respect between the two players but a very deep and biting interview.
Punter suddenly became an FBI agent there. XD
Heat 7/39!
One of the best batsmen I've ever seen, respect from Australia.
KP or Punter? lol?
kp 180 vs ind in mumbai test on a square turner was on of the best knocks ive ever seen
This is the part where viewers r more focused on the commentators than the match.
It's not a game this is Peterson and ponting podcast
Interesting Conversation.. KP was all about man management... his numbers don't lie... he should be there in that ODI squad.... We saw what ENG did against AUS in the 1st ODI....
KP i miss you in england outfit..
The banter between the two is just priceless
Wrong Caption
Punter is respectful towards KP
This is not "Grilling"
When the cricket is boring, you get to hear some of the most wonderful Stories 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If he was this humble during his playing days maybe he wouldn't have been dropped
Who, Pietersen? These are still technically his playing days. He was hoping against hope to get an England call-up.
Ricky Ponting, Kevin Pieterson the 2 biggest fighters in cricket. Include Sourav Ganguly and it'll be a dream banter.
Great to listen to, it would've been nice if the clip could have kept on rolling and they could have continued discussing the team dynamic/personalities. We have still never really been told why KP was left out of the side... I guess the ECB just thought its time to move on and look to the future. And tbf England had a fantastic summer last year at the World Cup, what a final match with NZ!
Was KP texting his mates on the other channel while this was being broadcast ?
I always like to watch KP anywhere in cricket field
Thanks Hopes n Cutting for playing test during this nice conversation 😍
What a spell by Fawad Ahmed btw 👏
guys if u read his book you will now that kevin pietersen isnt the bad guy
if you read anyone’s book, you will know that anyone is not the bad guy......
20 minutes of Ponting trying to make KP uncomfortable. 20 minutes of KP defensively putting those away.
Michael Vaughan said about KP that he was at times extremely hard work could be a pain in the backside but that he could also win u the test match
Those shirts look really good

Nusrath Akhil reply to a 4 year and two month old comment
Love Ponting... coming from an Englishman
Very misleading caption, as an official channel representing Australian Cricket the Admin must be ashamed of him or herself
Man this guy Ahmed is a good spinner why is he not in the Aussie test squad????????
He is now
they tried to turn him into a medium pacer lol
He could bomb anytime
If ponting can handle Symonds & warne then why not Strauss & Cook couldn't handle KP.
Because Strauss and Cook aren't Ponting. Ponting is a very strong character. Only Vaughan handled him well.
@@tanyachugh4795 Hmm, Rightly said
Quite often the best or most dangerous players in any sport are also the hardest to handle. But a strong captain will find a way to deal with it, and get the results out of that player.

Strouse slip talking about peterson
i really want some film maker or i should say a great film maker should make a biopic on KP
👑 of cirket
Quality content!
Comments not turned off on this but why turn the opportunity off on other topics? Not CA but channel 9
10:20 👌🏼

When a former cricketer is a better interviewer than the "media experts".
do people not understand the meaning of the word 'grill' or something
It's clickbait.
salute punter back the common man and your mates
Geez 7/40
What a spell from Fawad Ahmed btw
4-1-7-1 🔥
Wonder how many Test runs KP would have ended on if he stayed playing for England?
5:01 Ricky Parkinson
FLINTOFF IS A BIT CHERLISH FOR THE RESPONSES HE GAVE.
the most remarkable thing about this clip is not a singke wicket fell in 20 mins!!
If I were grilling KP I would need a bigger grill. It’s not big enough to do do more than a few chops.
Kp what a legend
39/7 is that a joke ? 😂
And it's a t20😂😂
😂 😂 😂 😂 Yes
Honestly, KP will always be one of my favourites. Honest, aggressive, charismatic and most of all, different (i.e. not another boring pom). Wish he was an aussie.
true i am indian and i really liked the word you used here "different" i would dramatized it slightly and will call him maverick which english media and other media has always said him i dont think english team got full benefit of kevin's talent he had atleast 2 to 3 years left in but sadly couldn't happen
Probably because he's South African
14:05 Poor Howie
Scorchers WON!!!!!!
yes
Joseph Davis Scorchers weren’t playing.....
hes a nice guy, hes just misunderstood
i have to say this, i watched this as a recording after the match, but dayum if i had tuned in to actually catch a live Bbl match and was forced to hear the KP story for a good 8 overs of it; i would have been irritated !!!!
I watched the match live and that boring portion of the game came to life because of ricky and kevin
Doesn't quite speak the Queen's English does he
KP PR team would have been chewing their nails during this!
they did not need to i dont think sportman need pr team kp always has been himself
I want Australia to lose every game they play, whoever its against and in whatever format. However, having said that there's no other bunch of players or ex-players who I respect more. They play hard and if they lose they congratulate the opposition - if someone scores big then they congratulate them when they do. Great bunch of professionals... good TV.
And England won the world cup without KP
Dubiously! lol
yeah exactly lol
Instead of commenting on match they are talking about other things
Best you go report them
I actually understand what a P45 is now having moved to the UK this year, it’s the tax form after you’ve ceased employment!! 😅
Love Punter
kp the best
KP was a superstar and not many people know how to manage them and sometimes jealousy rears it's ugly head especially with insecure people.
time: 5'32" .. oooh ... thats a good bouncer
no one cares about the result of the match ... its all about ricky vs peter
Compared to aussies KP is just pure class
Why did they even kick kp out
15- hyppy-17 - Asa pehle baar hua
The biggest mistake KP made was moving to England and not Australia.
My favourite batsmen in that era in one frame. Loved their approach to batting more than the records, but then again when it comes to Punter and KP, records speak for themselves.❤
Great to see more aussie/english comments here rather than Indians.
Was this a job interview and KP looking for acceptance. Lot of subtext in the conversation. This should be part of uni management on leadership skills. Only a place or two let it slip out why KP was in the position he was in...
kp is very very best
The betrayal of Strauss cancelled everything for me. Today (well, at the start of Ashes 2023, he’s attacking Crawley, Duckett and Pope. Really mocking them. I don’t understand him.
Why is it 20 minutes long. It should be thirty seconds long!
K.P did not understand the rules of power..... Never outshine the master or do anything that unsettles him. Things will never end well.
I didn’t listen to them because I was just looking at the awful score..
Read this how langer will say " My Gosh ! He keeps on talking. It like he'll never-ever Stop. Dear God "
