Delhi Capitals posted an entertaining video of coach Ricky Ponting’s son Fletcher where he showed his football finesse against Rishabh Pant during a training session. Ever since Rishabh Ponting became the coach of the Delhi Capitals, he shares a cordial relationship with the skipper Rishabh Pant.

Earlier, the former Australia captain was isolated from the rest of the squad after one of his family members, staying with him at the team hotel, tested positive. It was a tough time for Ponting and his family members.

Ponting has three kids with his wife Rianna- a son and two daughters. Fletcher, his son, has experienced two near-death experiences in his early life. On both occasions, Ponting was rendered helpless as he could do nothing except watch his son battle through those difficult situations.

When Fletcher was six-week old he fought meningitis and came through, the Ponting family was in for another torrid time when an eight months old Fletcher contracted an infection during a hernia surgery.
