Shane Watson
If anybody in Australia has spare pair of hamstrings they aren’t using, Mr. S Watson would gladly take them off your hands.
The all-rounder has again been battling strains in the lead-up to the first Test, with the hectic schedule of the national team again not agreeing with him.
If Watson cannot bowl in the first Test match or two, the question that has to be asked, is his batting going to be good enough for him to play as a specialist in the top order?
Reports out of Australia suggest Watson has rolled the arm over during the past weekend in a bid to see if will be able to contribute in the field.
However, with the outcome of this series still being Australia’s to chase, they are better off to have a fit Watson batting, rather than a broken down all-rounder.
