Australia’s Usman Khawaja Aiming To Tick Three Boxes For Continuing To Play Test Cricket

By IANS News August 19, 2023 • 22:46 PM View: 1589

Usman Khawaja: Australia’s veteran opener Usman Khawaja said he will aim to continue playing Test cricket for a long time if he continues to tick three crucial boxes with the side. Khawaja scored 496 runs in the recently-concluded Ashes 2023, being the highest run-scorer of the series, which ended in a 2-2 draw.

The next Ashes series will be held in Australia in 2025-26. "In 2025…one series at a time I go with. You can get ahead of yourself and look to that time (in 2025) and think, 'I can probably get there', but I don't want to (do that)."
