The New South Wales coach Anthony Stuart has revealed that it is under Cricket Australia's [ Images ] instructions that Shane Watson's [ Images ] bowling is being used sparingly in the Champions League [ Images ] T20.
"Shane is just coming off the Test series in Sri Lanka [ Images ]. He bowled some good spells down there and probably more in a Test series than he has for quite some time.
"Shane's had a history of injuries early in his career and we got a direction from Cricket Australia that they didn't want him to bowl," Stuart informed ahead of his team's CLT20 group league match against Chennai Super Kings [ Images ].
He further added: "Straight up after this series, they have the series in South Africa [ Images ] and then they're back in Australia to play New Zealand [ Images ] and then India [ Images ]. He's (Watson) going to have a big workload this summer. We don't have any issues with Shane not bowling."
About their match against Stuart stated that his team has got a gameplan in place to beat defending champions Chennai Super Kings but it's up to his boys to execute it.
"We have a gameplan and it is up to us as to how we execute it," the Kiwi-born Stuart said.
"The boys been playing to the best of their ability and I'd say it's a good sign for us that we are improving. Regardless of what wicket we are provided tomorrow, we have a gameplan and it's upto us how we execute it."
