If I Do Play, It'll Only Be For One Game: Usman Khawaja Ahead Of Sydney Test
Australian batter Usman Khawaja, who will likely replace Travis Head in the fourth Ashes Test at Sydney, said on Sunday that he fully understands that he would be replaced once Head recovers from COVID-19 and is back for selection.
The 35-year-old Khawaja is Australia's reserve batter for the Ashes and has not played in the three Tests against the Joe Root-led side so far. But the Pakistan-born cricketer's chance has brightened, as Head has tested COVID-positive and is in isolation in Melbourne.
