Shane Watson 15 Sixes Record Channeling Adam Gilchrist

The Australia all-rounder, Shane Watson had his career-best innings with the unbeaten 185 runs against Bangladesh in the three match series. On Monday, Australia was given the target of 230 runs and the mark is achieved in just 24 Overs. Shane Watson 15 sixes and his 15 boundaries in his 96 balls scored unbeaten 185 runs. Watson's power hitting sixes has made another record in hitting sixes in an innings by overcoming the previous record of Xavier Marshall, who struck 12 sixes against Canada in 2008.

Michael Hussey has compared that Watson's innings to the best innings of Adam Gilchrist. Having watched the destructive Watson hitting world record 15 sixes from the boundary, Hussey was reminded of Gilli's 149 runs which include eight sixes during the 2007 World Cup final against Sri Lanka. Watson also holds another record of getting the most score through boundaries with 150 runs by overcoming South African Herschelle Gibbs' record of 126 runs of his total score.

Michael Hussey stated that it was pretty phenomenal and really a consistent hitting. He added that he was thinking that he has not seen reliable hitting in such way probably to Gilchrist's innings in the 2007 World Cup. He added his views on Watson stating that the 160 runs against England in January was an outstanding innings as well at the MCG and the strength and the power to be able to consistently clear the boundary.

During the unforgettable match of 434 runs against South Africa in 2006, although they lost the game, but we can see that maximum every ball has been diverted to either six or four. Hussey strongly feels that Watson could do it again and was sure that there is going to be conditions that suit him on a particular day or sometimes we just have our day when things go our way.

Although in the three match series Australia was leading with 2-0, they need to reflect with quiet accomplishment on their efforts through their minor achievements that gives a strong confidence for the next test tours to Sri Lanka and South Africa in the coming August. The team has a lot of change since the skipper Ricky Ponting has stepped down and the leadership was taken by Michael Clarke. Hussey said that Ponting's fitted into the team exceptionally well and it has been great for Michael to have Ponting's experience to bounce ideas off as well. He concluded that it has been a really worthwhile tour for them.
