Watson power kangaroo to series win
Watson knock Bangladesh's bowlers pointless with a world record count of sixes as the Australians gallop to a nine-wicket win in the second limited over match in Mirpur to seal the series. The target of 230 had appear a likely banana skin on a slow pitch offering some turn, but Watson made such glow work of it, that his unbeaten185 from 96 balls (15 fours and 15 sixes) now stands as the highest ODI score by an Australian, overtake Matthew Hayden's 181 against New Zealand in 2007.Xavier Marshall's 2008 mark for most sixes fell when Watson swing his 13th over the rope, the second six in as many balls off the bowling of Razzak.
Watson added two more for good gauge, to also shade one of ODI cricket's more lasting records, for the highest individual percentage of runs in a completed innings. Following Michael Clarke's century in game one, vice-captain Watson strike a powerful blow for the visitors' new leadership duo, accompanied most of the way by the unbeaten Ricky, although it came against a Bangladesh attack that was cowed into obedience from virtually the first over of the chase. Dropping Cameron White for Callum Ferguson as they sought a series-sealing victory, the Australians were in total authority when Bangladesh slid to 88 for 5. But Rahim, all-rounder Mahmudullah and left-arm spinner Shuvo pushed the hosts to 229 for 7.
Shahriar had done his best to keep the first half of the innings from petering out entirely but he was not helped by the funereal move toward of opener Kayes, who lingered 41 balls to score out five runs. Mitchell Johnson and Steve Smith shared five well-deserve wickets, while Brett Lee was small of luck during a spell that was damaged after his leak 17 runs in his final over. As if to stamp his intent on events, Watson coshed 14 from the first over of the reply and made 27 before his partner, Brad Haddin, had even faced a ball. Together they added 62 before Haddin, having contributed eight, mistimed a catch to midwicket for his second low score of the series.
Ricky was largely happy to enjoy his front-row seat for the Watson display, which will please his Rajasthan Royals captain Shane Warne as much as it did Clarke. The sentence was never greater than in the 22nd over, when Shuvo was deposited for four leg-side sixes, illustrating Watson's fearful power against supine opponent. Seeking parity at 1-1 after Shakib Al Hasan won the toss; Tamim offered a flashy drive at Johnson in the second over and slice to the left of the solitary slip where Shane Watson held an excellent catch. In the next over Lee and the rest of the Australians were persuaded they had Imrul gloving a well-directed short ball behind, but a vocal and sustained appeal went unheeded, decision reviews not being used during the series. The home side's only change was to withdraw Mortaza from the firing line, replaced by Rubel after Mortaza was significantly down on his usual pace in the series opener. Given Watson's subsequent rocket, he may have been relieved to sit this one out.
