The Sydney Morning Herald’s Alex Brown talks to Ricky Ponting about his charity work with cancer patients at the Sydney Children’s Hospital. The Pontings have already raised more than A$1 million for cancer research.
"Having visited maybe 15 or 20 young cancer sufferers [on the first day], my wife and I walked out holding back tears and we both felt that we could do something to help. We both became ambassadors of the charity very soon after that.”
