Adam WhiteHOST
And I think what happened, the fascination with the opener, sorry, the fascination with the all-rounder happened when Andrew Flintoff did so well in the 2005 Ashes.
Adam WhiteHOST
And then we had someone like Shane Watson who played a lot of cricket for Australia in the top three with a batting average in the mid-30s who bowled some handy overs.
Adam WhiteHOST
Now, he was an excellent bowler before he got injured, but the reality was that it wasn't much more than handy overs, but batting in the top six with an average of sort of mid-30s, which is kind of what Cameron Green is at the moment.
Adam WhiteHOST
Um, so yeah, I mean, maybe it is a situation of going back.
Steve O'KeefeHOST
Okay.
Steve O'KeefeHOST
Shane Watson as well.
Steve O'KeefeHOST
Okay, so him and Shane Watson, which is incredible for him, two in six tests.
Steve O'KeefeHOST
tests um is pretty incredible that's good um Kerry making 80 that partnership was important for Australia to be four for 330 at the end of day two Australia in a dominant position he's been he's been solid
Stuart MacGillGUEST
over the last couple of years with the bat you know it I will not hesitate to say that it surprised me but I'm very very proud of him he's he's a He's a very, very good player in that order.
James RochfordHOST
There's been a few of those.
James RochfordHOST
Didn't Chuck Watmore do that? I think Shane Watson did that as well, didn't he? Yeah.
James RochfordHOST
Shane Watson, yeah.
James RochfordHOST
That's his
BarneyHOST
test for retirement.
Jon AndersonGUEST
Now, a question for you two.
Jon AndersonGUEST
Who was the only Australian batsman to have scored at least two centuries in all three forms of the game? It could be Shane Watson.
Jon AndersonGUEST
It could be Mitch Marsh.
Jon AndersonGUEST
It could be Glenn Maxwell.
Bryce McGainGUEST
But if it is just as a top-order bat, then I'm happy to take that as well.
Bryce McGainGUEST
And I think that's where Shane Watson went through something similar as well.
Bryce McGainGUEST
And I know, you know, the only spot that he could bat was at the top of the order.
Bryce McGainGUEST
That's where they put him in the end.
Andrew MenczelHOST
Just a beautiful innings.
Andrew MenczelHOST
And he had been in the club with Shane Watson, David Warner, Glenn Maxwell and Mitch Marsh, who had centuries in all formats for the Australian male team.
Andrew MenczelHOST
But now he has that... record of two centuries in every format.
Andrew MenczelHOST
And I just wonder what this does when Australia plays in the home summer.

Gerard WhateleyGUEST
You can say you don't believe in them, but they're there.
Gerard WhateleyGUEST
I remember they used to always say, no, Shane Watson has to open because there's no one else.
Gerard WhateleyGUEST
And then they played Chris Rogers and went, oh, my God, we should have done that eight years ago.
Gerard WhateleyGUEST
Chris Rogers was there the whole time, but you wouldn't give him a chance.
