Usman Khawaja's Struggles Against Jasprit Bumrah Continues, Form Slump Worsens

Australian opener Usman Khawaja continued his poor form in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy against India at home as he fell to Indian pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah yet again during the fifth and final Test in Sydney on Friday. During the last ball of the day one's play, the ball touched the outside edge of Khawaja's bat and went into KL Rahul's hands at slips. Khawaja was back in the hut for just two runs in 10 balls. Khawaja's record against Bumrah in this series is dismal. In eight innings, the 38-year-old has played 112 balls against the red-hot Indian pacer, scored just 33 runs and got out six times. His batting average against Bumrah is barely 5.50.

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.

After Sam Konstas' Brilliant Debut, Ex-Australia Star Demands More "Bravery" From Senior Batters

Lavishing praise on young Sam Konstas, former opener David Warner has urged Australia's senior players to adopt a similar aggressive approach when facing Indian pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, who has been a dominant force with the ball in the ongoing series. The 19-year-old Konstas played some stunning scoops and laps off Bumrah en route to a 65-ball 60 on his Test debut during the fourth Test at Melbourne, which the Aussies won by 184 runs on Monday. "It was very special. People are going to criticise him as well. That's the nature of the beast, that's the way he is going to play," Warner told AAP.

"Chill. I'll...": Usman Khawaja To Sam Konstas After Virat Kohli Altercation In Boxing Day Test

Several former players disapproved of Virat Kohli's avoidable tiff with young Sam Konstas on Thursday while Australia opener Usman Khawaja said he stepped in to diffuse the tension because he did not want the situation to go out of hands. Khawaja was at the crease when the incident took place in the 10th over of the Australian innings on the opening day of the fourth Test in Melbourne. While crossing over, Kohli and Konstas bumped shoulders and quickly turned around to glance at each other, engaging in a heated exchange of words.

Mohammed Siraj Continues Bail-Switching Banter With Marnus Labuschagne. Lucky Charm Works For India

The bail-switching banter between India pacer Mohammed Siraj and Australia batter Marnus Labuschagne has continued into the fourth Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024/25, with fortune once again favouring India seemingly. This time, Siraj walked up to Labuschagne's stumps during the 43rd over and switched the bails. However, while Labuschagne had discreetly switched the bails back during the third Test, this time Siraj himself called Labuschagne and showed him that he'd switched the bails. As it turned out, India got a wicket almost instantly.

4th Test Day 1: Jasprit Bumrah Keeps India In Game; Australia 311/6 After Impressive Sam Konstas Debut

Jasprit Bumrah's knack of coming up with magic deliveries in crunch situations kept India alive after Australia's top-order, headlined by teen debutant Sam Konstas' stroke-filled half-century, guided the hosts to 311 for 6 on the opening day of the fourth Test in Melbourne on Thursday. If Konstas' audacious 60 off 65 balls enthralled the near sell-out crowd of over 80,000 at the MCG during a humid morning session, Bumrah's (3/75 in 21 overs) deception of length to dismiss Travis Head (0) also had its takers as chants of 'Boom, Boom, Booooomraaaaaaah' reverberated through the stands.

Watch: Define BCCI, ICC, Indian Cricket In One Word Each: Steve Smith, Travis Head Give Epic Reply

Australian cricket might have dominated ICC events, winning the most trophies, but Indian cricket is arguably considered the breadwinner for the sport. Over the last two decades, Indian cricket has grown leaps and bounds, challenging the Aussies and other top nations on every front. The Board of Control for Cricket In India (BCCI) has played a big role in Indian cricket's rise. In the form of the Indian Premier League (IPL), the BCCI has also given the cricket world a top franchise-based T20 league. Hence, even when Australian cricketers were asked about their views on the India board, they only had good things to say.

3rd Test: Australian Openers Start Well, Reach 28/0 On Rain-Curtailed Day 1

Local hero Usman Khawaja and young Nathan McSweeney displayed sound defensive technique against Jasprit Bumrah but persistent rain played havoc with the opening day of the third Test, allowing only 13.2 overs of play in which Australia scored 28 for no loss against India in Brisbane Saturday. The gloomy weather didn't allow any action after the rain-curtailed first session. The weather in Brisbane indicates a start-stop game throughout the next four days. Khawaja (19 batting, 47 balls) and McSweeney (4 batting, 33 balls) traded aggression with caution but the senior left-hander still got a couple of boundaries when Mohammed Siraj pitched it short.
