Finally, the cricket dream boarded the plane for an international tournament, booking the tickets of David Warner, Steve Smith, and Pat Cummins as well as the required quarantine measures. However, Usman Khawaja, who tops the batting figures, isn\u2019t on the passenger\u2019s list.<\/p>\n

A Hamstring Injury Dragged Usman Out of the World Cup 2019<\/h2>\n

A hamstring injury dragged Usman out of the World Cup 2019. Next, he couldn\u2019t secure his third spot by the end of the Ashes series. Thereby, a Pakistan-born Aussie player, Usman didn\u2019t last long in favor of national selector and was left as the target of contract snub. He couldn\u2019t tag along with the fortune of Smith, Warner, Labuschagne, and captain Aaron Finch all the way.<\/p>\n

The selection committee Chairman, Trevor Hohns believes, Usman will bounce back from the fall quickly.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>\u201cUssie was a difficult one for us, probably the hardest one. He was ranked in two of the three forms of the game and unfortunately just fell out the bottom of the list. We know Usman\u2019s a fabulous player and I don\u2019t have any doubt he\u2019ll accept the challenge going forward to get back into that Australian side<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Originally from Islamabad, Pakistan, the four years old, Usman followed Australian origins alongside his family. He accomplished a bachelor of aviation at the University of NSW and thought to work on airways. After a month of graduation, Usman took off an undefined hiatus from flying and instead invested on his work of interest- cricket. Eventually, he became the first Australian Muslim to play interstate cricket. Usman couldn\u2019t keep off his containment being the pioneer Pakistani-born Australian player to play Test cricket <\/a>for Australia.<\/p>\n

“[The first] local player, maybe. I think it is, I’m just too stoked to be in the team to even worry about it. I’m too happy.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even an Australian under-19s coach Brian McFadyen is in awe of Usman Khawaja when he plays \u2018both on the front and back feet.\u2019 After all, he bagged the championship reward at the Australian under-19s in Perth. Henceforth, McFadyen realized the Aussie player is one of the impressive personas for the world stage.<\/p>\n

It was his father, Tariq Khawaja, who made Usman took his time off from studies and play cricket together, while his mother helped him with the school.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe’s always loved the game and he was the one who kept pushing me, he always let me take time off school to play cricket when my mum was trying to get me to concentrate on my studies\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the same way, Tariq Khawaja is delighted to have his son, Usman, an exemplary athlete, proving his self-determination regardless of stereotypical race or religion. Well, in Sydney grade cricket in 2008, he amassed 907 runs at 60.47 and was consequently summoned to the AIS Cricket Centre of Excellence.<\/p>\n

“He can set an example as to how a good citizen from any race or religion can achieve what he wants provided he’s got the determination,” Tariq Khawaja Quipped<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
