Although it is thought Michael Clarke will beat Phil Jaques in securing a spot for Australia's tour to South Africa, Steve Waugh reckons Jaques deserves his chance:
"The time to pick him is now - he's a form player and it's hard not to take him," Waugh said.
"I think it's time to give him an extended run.
"He provided a glimpse of what he can do when he made 94 (in his only one-day innings for Australia).
"It is getting to the stage where Australia will be really looking to get their plans ready for the World Cup - and if he is to be part of those plans then you would like to see what he can do now.
