Ricky Ponting has apologized for his unruly behaviour when he was declared runout in the match against Zimbabwe on Monday.
The incident happened on Monday during the 4th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011. In the 33rd over of the first innings, Ricky Ponting was given runout. He had gone for a second run, but a throw from Clarke Mpofu reached the stumps before he could reach the crease.
Ricky Ponting, obviously in a fit of rage, threw his gloves at a LCD television set in the dressing room and damaged it. The behaviour from a captain of a cricket team is specially demeaning.
Australia had won that match against Zimbabwe by 91 runs.
It is learnt that the captain of Australian team has since then apologised. A spokesman of the team had come forward with a statement that Ponting had accidentally damaged the television set in the dressing room.
Now it remains to be seen how the International Cricket Council reacts to the incident.
