Michael Clarke Feels SCG Test "Great Opportunity" For Usman Khawaja To Announce Retirement

Former Australian captain Michael Clarke said that the final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia could be a "great opportunity" for veteran opener Usman Khawaja to announce his retirement at his home venue. With the series 2-1 in favour of the Aussies, the hosts will be heading for the New Year's Test at Sydney to secure the series and win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the first time since 2014. Khawaja, who has been delivering great returns as a Test opener since his recall in 2022, has not been at his best this year.

While Australia are out in front as claimants to the second spot, Rohit Sharma-led India still has an outside chance.

How India Can Reach World Test Championship Final Despite 4th Test Loss vs Australia: Win In Sydney And Hope...

India may have lost the crucial Boxing Day contest by 184 runs but all is not lost as far as their chances of qualifying for the World Test Championship (WTC) Final are concerned.

Post the loss, India's point percentage (PCT) has dropped to 52.78 from 55.89. Australia, on the other hand boosted their PCT as they now have 61.46.

Who Is Sharfuddoula Saikat: Umpire Behind Yashasvi Jaiswal's Controversial DRS Dismissal

A huge DRS controversy erupted on Day 5 of the 4th Test between India and Australia as young batter Yashasvi Jaiswal was controversially given out after he was caught behind by wicket-keeper Alex Carey. After Australia's appeal was turned down by the on-field umpire, captain Pat Cummins referred the decision to the third umpire from Bangladesh, Sharfuddoula Saikat. Jaiswal, batting on 84, went for a pull shot, but mistimed it as the ball went close to the face of the bat and his gloves. While the 'Snicko' didn't show any conclusive evidence of the ball touching either the bat or the glove, Sharfuddoula, after looking at different angles, gave the verdict in Australia's favour.
