'Only Thing I Wanted Was To Finish Off With A Win': Khawaja After Farewell Test At SCG
Sydney Cricket Ground: Australia’s five-wicket win in the fifth and final Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Thursday meant the most for Usman Khawaja, who walked off the field for one last time in his career, having announced his retirement a couple of days before the game began.
When the 88-Test veteran walked into the field on Day 5 of the SCG Test, his teammates held themselves back as Khawaja led them onto the field. Later, the England team formed a guard of honour near the pitch when he walked out to bat one final time in the final innings when the hosts were asked to chase a modest 160-run target.
Speaking to the broadcasters after Australia’s win, Khawaja expressed gratitude to have won the final game of his career and to have gotten the opportunity to celebrate with his teammates.
