odd Ashes fact

Shane Watson has reached 30 in all nine innings he has played against England, but has a highest score of 62.

Marcus North, by contrast, has reached 30 in only three of his 11 Ashes innings, but has gone on to score two centuries and a 96.

If Australia could find a way of surreptitiously swapping North for Watson when the latter reaches 30 they would have the new Don Bradman.
