Australian batsman Ricky Ponting is likely to leave the Sri Lanka tour during the ODI series or the Test matches anytime, if the birth of his second child comes faster than expected.
Former Australian captain, Ricky pointing has left to Sri Lanka tour ahead of his wife Rianna’s due in giving birth to second child, which was scheduled just a week before the start of the third test in next month.
Ponting having a three-year-old daughter Emmy (born more than a month early) has who reached Colombo with the national team last Thursday, expects to dash off at any time.
Ponting while speaking with the various sources has stated that, it is not working exactly how we would have wanted it to work. Emmy was five weeks early as well so the likelihood of the second one being early is pretty high and stated that, he has got all plans and preparations, if it happens to come early and reported that, we are not exactly sure when it is going to happen. It is going to happen in the latter half of the month if she goes full term, but I have got a funny feeling but Rianna is not.
Ponting has stated that, he may anytime leave from the Sri Lanka tour.
