Shane Watson will be 34 before the Ashes series starts later this year.
I'll freely admit that I've never been a fan but I also acknowledge that he has a lot of talent which has unfortunately not been fulfilled at test level.
It's kind of amazing to have only 4 test hundreds yet 24 test 50s.
His biggest value in my book is as a bowler to break partnerships. He's been quite good at that. I still think Australia should move on soon though. He just isn't achieving what is required from his position. He should be battling with Mitch Marsh, Burns and whoever else for the six spot.
