Australia all-rounder Shane Watson believes that his side have enough "versatility" in the squad to triumph at the World Twenty20 tournament in Bangladesh.

The tournament is the only major global title that Australia have not added to their achievements, but with the likes of David Warner and Mitchell Johnson in form, Watson believes that this could be their year.

"I think the versatility of this squad [is] more than any squad that I've played Twenty20 cricket for Australia," ESPN quotes Watson as saying. "Certainly in all conditions against any opposition we can match up really well, I think it gives us more of a chance to be able win it.

"Twenty20 cricket certainly is fickle but if you have got a lot of match winners in your team, you have got more chance of it being someone's day, we've certainly got that in our squad for sure."

Australia will begin their campaign against Pakistan on March 23.
