What about Watling back to open? Just needs some ever readies...

I would be amazed if it were possible to keep wicket in a test match and open the batting successfully. If you batted first you could probably get away with it but imagine keeping for 130 overs and then going in having to face 10 overs from a new ball after a 10-minute break?
