Career

Watson joined the cricket career officially in the 2000 but started playing in the team from the year 2002 to play against South Africa. In his first debut match, he was successful to score a century but still did not get the chance in the tour match. Just before the 2003 Cricket World Cup, he had a fracture in the back portion of his body due to which he could not participate in the match.

Though his fracture made his career suffer a lot but he did not lose hope and returned in the 2004-2005 ODI season. He served as a bowler in the next few matches till Jamie Cox recognized him as a batsman, which changed Watson's life. With Watson as a right-handed batsman, the team achieved its first victory. After this victory, Watson brought many trophies and achieved many victories to finally establish his name as a cricketer. He was also made the Captain of the Sydney Thunder team and also the T20 Captain of the ODI match which took place in the 2016. This was the last match of Watson's career and he took the retirement from his international cricket career in the same year.
