Ponting doubtful in Twenty20 match

Agencies

Melbourne, January 31: : Australian captain Ricky Ponting on Thursday indicated that he was a doubtful starter for Friday's Twenty20 cricket match against India as he had still not fully recovered from his back injury.

Ponting said he was trying his best to recover from the back injury which he sustained on the last day of the fourth and final Test at Adelaide last week.

"I injured my back last week in Adelaide so I pretty much have been flat on my back the last couple of days, just trying to give myself the best chance to recover," he said.

Ponting had missed their previous Twenty20 match at Perth against New Zealand during the Chappell-Hadlee series in December.

"I didn't play the last Twenty20 game so if I am fit I will obviously have to come into the side somewhere," he said.

10 Husbands, Still a Virgin A lawyer married a woman who had previously divorced ten husbands. On their wedding night, she told her new husband, "Please be gentle, I'm still a virgin." "What?" said the puzzled groom. "How can that be if you've been married ten times?" "Well, Husband #1 was a sales representative: he kept telling me how great it was going to be. Husband 2 was in software services: he was never really sure how it was supposed to function, but he said he'd look into it and get back to me. Husband 3 was from field services: he said everything checked out diagnostically but he just couldn't get the system up. Husband 4 was in telemarketing: even though he knew he had the order, he didn't know when he would be able to deliver. Husband 5 was an engineer: he understood the basic process but wanted three years to research, implement, and design a new state-of-the-art method. Husband 6 was from finance and administration: he thought he knew how, but he wasn't sure whether it was his job or not. Husband 7 was in marketing: although he had a nice product, he was never sure how to position it. Husband 8 was a psychologist: all he ever did was talk about it. Husband 9 was a gynecologist: all he did was look at it. Husband 10 was a stamp collector: all he ever did was... God! I miss him! But now that I've married you, I'm really excited!" "Good," said the new husband, "but, why?" "You're a lawyer. This time I know I'm gonna get screwed!"
