COLOMBO, Oct 1: Shane Watson’s brilliant form with bat and ball has propelled Australia’s unbeaten run in the World Twenty20, but the star all-rounder warned rivals he was not finished yet.

Watson’s extraordinary display has won him Man-of-the-Match awards in all four of Australia’s games and made him both the top run-getter and leading wicket-taker in the tournament.

Having thrashed India and South Africa in their first two Super Eight matches, Australia must still beat Pakistan on Tuesday to qualify for the semi-finals from Group 2.

Watson, the 31-year-old vice-captain, said he needed to continue with the same intensity if Australia was to win the one major title that has eluded them so far.

“I know how important every game is to us and, in a World Cup, there is no game where you can take your foot off the pedal,” Watson said after the eight-wicket win over South Africa on Sunday night.

“In the end, it is so important to keep the momentum going. At the moment, things are going really well for all of us as a team.”—AFP
