CPL 2016: 5 star players who are making their CPL debut

Shane Watson

Watson was one of IPL 2016’s premier all-rounders

Shane Watson may not have been his usual self in the final of IPL 2016 but for the rest of the tournament, he showed just why he is one of the most consistent all-rounders in the history of the Indian Premier League.

Capable of batting anywhere in the top-order and also opening and closing the bowling, he is one of those rare all-rounders who can be a threat on any surface, irrespective of whether it is with the bat or the ball.

Having been snapped up by the St Lucia Zouks, who are captained by Darren Sammy, the former Australian all-rounder will look to show that international retirement has done nothing to dampen his enthusiasm for the game or how effective he is.
