Invincibles member Neil Harvey said that Ponting's Test team didn't play with the right spirit, and he criticised the captain for allowing his players to go too far with sledging.
"Certainly the captain needs to be stronger and keep his guys in line," Harvey said.
"He needs to look at himself."
Harvey was also angered by the team's failure to shake India captain Anil Kumble's hand at the end of the Test on Sunday.
"I don't think they are very sporting," Harvey said.
