"He runs at spinners. He reverse-slaps them. He hits over the top. He turns even hard-spun well-flighted deliveries into scoring opportunities."

Fidel Fernando on the 2025 version of Usman Khawaja

Khawaja scripts Galle redemption with effortless brilliance
In 2016, he appeared clueless against spin at the venue. Almost nine years on, he disrupted spin with a wide range of shots

Great Scott Boland, the supersub calling the shots for Australia
If Australia do regain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Boland will have been a major reason why, and he's only there because Josh Hazlewood is injured

A record crowd for a Test in Australia. A finish inside the final hour on day five. That was something special at the MCG. Starc, Cummins and Boland were immense.

Aaron Hardie will make his BBL season debut tonight but as a specialist batter due to an ongoing quad issue.

Spoke to him recently and he’s still hopeful of being a genuine allrounder in the long-term.

Fully fit he should be in the Test frame
