A batch file cannot be called ping.bat

I have been playing with batch files and have found that if you call a ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx from a batch file called ping.bat it wont execuite correctly.
eg
If you do this from a file called ping.bat

ping 203.0.178.191
ping.bat

The file for ping is ping.exe yet I call ping.bat
