IND vs AUS: The fourth match of the four-match Test series between India and Australia is being played in Ahmedabad. On the first day of this match, Australia’s opener Usman Khawaja scored a brilliant century. Usman Khawaja was all smiles after his century. He would never have thought that he would score a century on this tour. During the 2013 and 2017 tours of India, he used to carry drinks to the ground. But in the series being played this year, he has become the only Australian player to score a century.
What did Usman Khawaj say
After batting all day in India, he played an unbeaten inning of 104 runs. After this innings, he said that he did not think that he would ever smile so much after scoring a century, there was emotion in it. He further said that he has already done two Test tours of India (2013 and 2017). He used to carry drinks in eight Test matches and this time I got a chance.
After trying openers like Marcus North and Chris Rogers, Cricket Australia gave 36-year-old Khawaja a chance. He said that he was told throughout his career that he could not play spin, so he never got a chance to play cricket in India. He further said that going to the crease and scoring a century in India was fantastic for him because five years ago if he had been asked about it, he would have thought that the man in front was crazy.
Can’t Khawaja play spin?
Pakistan-born Usman Khawaja said he never expected to score a hundred in India, so he got very emotional. When asked if he agreed with the fact that he cannot play spin, he said, “Maybe to some extent”. But when people start saying it, then even a thought becomes a reality. He further said that whenever he got out on the spin ball, people would say ‘you can’t play spin’. He had started believing these things. But after these innings played against India, he proved himself that he can play spin well.
