Shane Watson is Redlands Tigers player no 573, Australian Test Player no 391 and Australia's 44 Test Captain
In November 2020 one of the highest profile Redlands Tigers players of all time announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. Before we had Marnus to cheer for on the international stage, we had Watto. And before him you had to look a long way back to find our last Test player.
Shane came to the club (then known as Easts-Redlands) as a fresh faced teenager in the 1997/98 season from Ipswich and immediately made an impression with his hard hitting yet technically correct batting and ability to bowl at good pace.
