Ponting hails Watson brilliance
Captain Ricky Ponting heaped praise on Shane Watson after his second successive century saw Australia to victory in the Champions Trophy final.
Watson, who smashed 136 not out against England, hit an unbeaten 105 in the six-wicket win over New Zealand.
"The hundred he made against England was outstanding but this one tonight, in the situation he was in, doesn't get much tougher than that," said Ponting.
"Especially when you are chasing small totals and lose early wickets."
Watson's innings was all the more impressive after Australia were reduced to 6-2 inside 14 deliveries chasing a modest target of 201.
