Ponting was dismissed 38 times by right-arm off spinners: Harbhajan accounted for 26.31% of those dismissals - including 3 ducks.

The reason I rate Ponting below other All Time Greats is his weakness vs spin and his unwillingness/inability to play the cut shot. His average drops to the low 30s vs Asian teams in Asia. The pitches there really bothered him.
It's funny. Ponting was a much better batsman than Steve Waugh, but Waugh batted well vs the best everywhere.
It's amazing how the Aussies keep producing good test captains.

An impressive lineage, no doubt. Since 1984, Australia have gone from Border to Taylor to SR Waugh to Ponting to Clarke and now Smith.

How Ricky Ponting rates Harbhajan Singh as a spinner? Nightmarish!
