Labuschagne Is A Terrific Player Who Is Going To Score Runs At Some Stage: Khawaja

By IANS News December 01, 2022 • 13:58 PM View: 584

Australia opener Usman Khawaja, who made a gritty 65 runs on day one of first Test against the West Indies, was in praise of fellow Queenslander Marnus Labuschagne, calling him a "terrific" player who always has the belief of scoring runs "at some stage" in the match.

Labuschagne, who ended day one at 154 not out, was eventually dismissed for 204 on day two of the ongoing match at Perth Stadium, immediately after bringing up his double ton. Despite admitting that he wasn't at his best at the end of day one, Labuschagne hanged around to get to the three-figure mark.
