In a  375-game one-day international career, never before had Ponting made  five single-figure scores in a row. John Inverarity,  the national  selector, said Ponting would be missed, but the time had come to move on  in the 50-over format. <a href="http://www.espncricinfo.com/commonwealth-bank-series-2012/content/current/story/554464.html" target="_blank">http://www.espncricinfo.com/commonwealth-bank-series-2012/content/current/story/554464.html</a></blockquote>
