well.
"If everyone is fit, then yes (No. 4), that's the way the selection is likely to go with Michael and Mickey figuring it out. Considering everything that's happened over the last 12 months, especially, I can see why they might want to go that way.
"In the end, I've got as much experience batting in these conditions whether in the middle-order or at the top of the order, so Michael and I will play a very important part in this series in terms of batting in that middle-order because it can be difficult."
Asked if the thought of his pregnant wife distracts him Watson said, "Uhhh... Possibly, but nothing has been confirmed yet. If she has the baby early, then there will be less chance of me seeing the birth."
Watson also spoke of the void created by the retirements of legends like Rahul Dravid and Ponting.
"(The two teams) are in a similar place. I know what Ponting and Hussey gave to the Australian team and you can't replace that. With the young guys trying to find their feet, they will be able to become good players but the guys they are replacing... To replace that kind of experience is impossible.
"It's exactly the same with the Indian team as well. The quality of Rahul Dravid, I've been playing with him in Rajasthan, he will be sorely missed. The way he carries himself as a world-class player and how he goes about his life is amazing.
"It's for everyone to learn from. He's a very humble man. And India will miss that alone, forget the quality of player he has been for such a long period of time." More
