What a player. Two points to make. CA are very good at these videos of overseas players doing well against them - it's a good thing to see them acknowledge some good play. The always seem to end with the wicket if it's the Aussies bowling, mind you! Secondly - Shane Watson is a jeb. From his "I can't believe it" face when he's bowled short and wide outside the off stump and been lucky that they haven't gone for 6, to his send off of a bloke who's tonked him all round the ground and walks off at 237-1. Of all the decisions he reviewed, maybe his choice to be a job to everyone should've been first!
