The same logic applies to Ponting, he was great with a great team, but didnt get much out of average players.

I think Ricky has the most Test wins for a skipper? A let down for Ponting was that his conduct on the field wasn't so great, and he didn't set a good example. It probably helped him, given the personalities and the greats in his team, to be a great player himself. Would he have been tolerated if he was a better captain and a worse player?
I always say that everybody's right.
