Discussing retirement, the Australian opening batter Usman khawaja told that he will step out gracefully from the game when the time comes. The number 38 is thinking about the end of his career as he and his side are about to defend their title from South Africa in the final of the World Test Championship at Lord’s. Baseball ist dies deiner, prize-winning old partner has retired. So, Khawaja must step in to keep stability at the top.
Khawaja stands tall for Australia with 1422 runs, the most in the World Test Championship cycle until the game at Lord’s. There may be concerns about his age, but he says he feels well and is having fun playing.
“To me, age isn’t a big thing. As long as I’m enjoying the game, training it hard, scoring runs, and helping the team, I have that drive,” Khawaja mentioned to ICC Digital. He added that he tries to focus on enjoying every Test and every series that comes over the way, and he’ll know when the time comes to retire.
While yet to be cemented, Australia is prepping Khawaja’s partner on the other side. Since Warner retired last January, many followed suit, trying Smith, McSweeney, Head, and Konstas as his opening partner. For the final, Labuschagne is being talked of as a possible opener, while Konstas, who impressed over there in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, joins the team in London for further training.

There has much buzzing around whom Khawaja will partner, but he simply isn’t thinking much about it. He said, “Honestly, it doesn’t really change things for me. Opening is tough, and I’m focused on how to play against the bowlers. Whoever is with me is likely thinking the same. We just need to work together to take on the attack.”He further said that, so far, it has been a bit quiet without Warner, but the energy is focused on doing what he needs to for the team and being a good partner with whoever opens with him.
