Shane Robert Watson (born 17 June 1981 in Ipswich, Queensland) is an Australian cricketer. He debuted for the Australian cricket team in 2002, playing his first one-day international against South Africa. While he has become a regular member of the one-day squad, Watson has played few Test Matches for Australia, having debuted against Pakistan at the Sydney Cricket Ground in January 2005.
Watson started his first-class cricketing career for Tasmanian Tigers after leaving his home state of Queensland, but returned home to play for the Queensland Bulls as his international career was beginning. He has also played for Hampshire in the English County Championship. He regards Terry Alderman as one of his mentors.
His career has been marred by untimely injury. After breaking into the one-day team as a regular in 2002, he was injured at the start of 2003, missing the 2003 World Cup. Again in 2005, he was drafted into the Test team with the intention of becoming the designated allrounder, but he dislocated his shoulder in just his second Test in that designated role, after diving to field a ball.
He was reselected into the one day squad for the 2006 tour of South Africa but was dropped when all-rounder Andrew Symonds returned from injury. Watson was also dropped in favour of Symonds for the Test side.

I am not familiar with the game, but I THINK you are a CRICKET player... am I right?
a radio host in australia, who was a cricket player, thought I should learn the rules of the game but it is too much info right now. I like football (called soccer by the americans)
