Shane Watson couldn't contain his excitement as he hit the nets with his Chennai Super Kings team-mates.

CSK began training on Friday, September 4, after clearing a third round of testing for the virus.

 

'How exciting it was to be back with all of my @ChennaiIPLmates for our first training session!!!' exclaimed the Australian all-rounder.

'It was so much fun. There was a little rust that will not take long to go,' Watson tweeted.

The 39 year old has scored 953 runs and taken 6 wickets in 32 games for CSK -- notching up his highest score of 117 not out in the 2018 final against the SunRisers Hyderabad.
