Collingwood to Watson, SIX, if you’re somewhere behind deep square leg reading this, please take cover! Watson’s just having a blast bashing them around, flat and quick off the bat, this man has tremendous bat speed, luckily the kids at the grass embankment were alert enough

Collingwood to Watson, no run, cuts it straight to point
40.3
Collingwood to Watson, SIX, he’s making a living out of flat sixes today, friendly short delivery, he clubs it over deep square, no casualties in the crowd this time, thankfully
