Ponting points finger at 'selfish' Lara


In this article , Ponting has raised questions bt Lara Quadruple Century and his intentions. Also he mentions that Hayden was given a chance to do a similar thing and he himself concedes that.

"Nevertheless, Ponting conceded that Hayden's 380 at Perth did involve an exception to the team rule, as he was allowed to carry on batting with the record in sight. "It was a very rare thing, for Matty to be able to bat for as long as he did and go on and make that big score," said Ponting. "He was given the opportunity to go on and break Brian's record and he did that. He was going to be given another half an hour, or 20 minutes, to try to get to 400 but unfortunately he got out."

Is he right in pointing a finger after doing such a thing?
