Baby boy for Watson!

Australian vice-captain Shane Watson became a father when his wife Lee Furlong gave birth to a baby boy on Thursday, reports Australian media.

His sports news presenter wife gave birth to the little fella in St George hospital in Sydney on the same day his team-mates – minus the four suspended for not doing the homework set them by coach Mickey Arthur – watched rain wash out the first day of the Test. Australia must win to stay in the series.

“Shane and lee are naturally delighted,” Watson’s manager Tony Connolly told The Daily Telegraph.

Watson had planned to miss the fourth Test to coincide with Lee’s due date, but left the tour early when he was suspended.

Despite reports that Watson was considering quitting Test cricket, captain Michael Clarke is hoping he’ll be available for the fourth Test

The final Test begins in New Delhi on March 22.
