Well I am not a Watson fan never have been but to be fair to him he is an all rounder not an opening bat.

We were lucky with Gillchrist he could bat and slog as an opener but in real life test matches we need proper opening batsmen that can dig in and bat for one or two sessions with out worring about the score once they have done that the runs will come.

Games shouldn't be won until the last day we are loosing them on the first day or should I say the first session we bat.

Mind you our bowling isn't much better our spinner didn't take a wicket in the match the English one destroyed us. In the first innings a part timer took 3 wickets with spin but our specialist spin bowler didn't get a wicket?

We need to go back to basics and pick a team for test cricket and then when it come to one day matches or 20/20 pick a team for that type of game.
