Ponting makes call on England vacancy, ponders IPL coaching future

But Ponting hosed down any links to the job when speaking with host Sanjana Ganesan on the most recent episode of The ICC Review, revealing he currently has too much on his plate despite the recent departure from Delhi.

"No, I wouldn't ever consider doing that actually," Ponting remarked when asked if he would consider the England white-ball coaching position.

"I'm on record saying that international jobs for me right now are not really where my life is at as there's just so much more time taken up with an international job.

“I've got other commitments as well, with my TV work and things that I do and also trying to balance that out with having a decent amount of home time, which I haven't had much of the last couple of years anyway.

"Coaching other international teams is one thing, coaching England for an Australian is probably something slightly different, but right now there's sort of enough on my plate as I've got a bit more coming up in the next couple of months in the UK.

“Australia's got some white-ball stuff coming up over there which I'll go and commentate, so no, right now if my name was on the list they can actually take it off."
