Ricky Ponting, the Australia legend, scored his maiden Test century at Headingley on this day in 1997. This was also a remarkable one, because it came at their own backyard against Australia’s fiercest enemies, England. When he helped Australia beat the Michael Atherton-led England side by an innings and 61 runs, Ponting brought up his ton on the third day of the fourth Ashes Test in Leeds in 1997. On Sunday, the former Australia captain took to Twitter to recall the special occasion.
