Melbourne: Australian captain Ricky Ponting on Monday confessed that his team did not take Twenty20 cricket seriously and needed to learn the nuances of the game to lift its modest international record in the shortest format. “I don’t think there was any need for it to be taken ultra-seriously before the ICC World Championship. “The games that were held before it were almost played as exhibition-type matches — to promote the other forms of the game,” Ponting said on returning home from India. “When there’s a World Cup event in any form of the game, you want to make sure you understand the game well and you play the game well,” he was quoted as saying by the Australian Associated Press. “Our international record’s not great, we’ve probably only got a 50-50 win-loss record — and that’s something we’re going to improve on over the next couple of years,” he added. — PTI
