And shouldn't be opening

Hence why he comes in at 6

I'm the only one who gave reasons as well  :P

As stated by me before I really don't care

He is the only captain we have

WHO WILL CAPTAIN   :P

from the team i put together:

Watson
Watson does enough already.....
What Cic, want him to captain, open the batting, and bowl? Why not get him to keep and bowl at the same time, and serve the drinks as well? Why not even coach the team?
You are delusional, seriously. That is why your team sucks, because you arent thinking of, now, just the future where we will have wasted our time playing the younguns as we will be near the bottom of the rankings.

My opinion on what the current team should be.

1. Phil Hughes
2. Shane Watson
3. Usman Khawaja
4. Shaun Marsh
5. Michael Clarke
6. Next Best Batsman - Ferguson maybe
7. Tim Paine
8. Mitchell Johnson
9. Peter Siddle
10.Pat Cummins
11.Nathan Lyon

12th man: Mitchell Starc

I like this team Q. It has a solid balance of youth, maturity, and experience.

I obviously want Ferguson too, but anyone will do. :)

Yeah, watto is already half the side. He doen't need to be any more.

that is why i have henriques in my side as the all rounder to bowl in place of Watson
So your saying arguably our best bowler shouldn't bowl?

THATS WHY HE SHOULDNT OPEN
HE is our best opener though :P
I want Khawaja or however you spell it to open. He will be a freak.
None of this would be a problem if we brought back Katich :)

Watson has to open Mails.

But he also has to bowl Cic.

Watson does too much bowling atm

Henriques can give Watson reduced workload to help manage his batting and captaincy for the side i have selected

TheMailman

Watson needs to bowl and bat and make good contributions with both

So far his opening has suffered a bit

Give Khawaja a go and if he stuffs up badly switch them back or put Hussey in

Simple really

Nah cic, it won't work. Look at Vettori. Bowling and skipper. As soon as he batted higher up the list he gave up the captaincy. Doing all three is too much work.

Cicjose

but you are expecting Watson to be the 5th bowler permanently therefore expecting he cant do the job

Well, if he's not a bowler, then Australia is screwed. If he's the skipper and batter and bowler, then Australia is screwed.

Just keep Punter in the side, or, give it to Tim Paine as soon as he's fit.

TheMailman

The picture I see Watson in:
A batter similar to Gilchrist
A bowler similar to on of those good 1990's all rounders

Opening the batting alone is a difficult job and all of the openers practice should be spent practicing opening!

If that made sense

so much hate... we wouldn't be in this position

if we had a proper system that rewards players for playing well domestically
