    Former Australian Test: Former Australian Test captain Tim Paine has expressed his confidence that Usman Khawaja, despite nearing his 38th birthday, would continue to represent Australia in international cricket for a few more years.

    Paine dismissed any talk of an imminent retirement for the veteran opener, citing Khawaja's form, resilience and ability to thrive at the top of the order even as he approaches the later stages of his career. Since moving to the opening position at the end of the 2021/22 Ashes series, Khawaja has averaged an impressive 54.04, establishing himself as a steadfast presence at the top of Australia’s batting lineup.
