Ashes: Khawaja Ruled Out Of Brisbane Test Due To Back Injury
Brisbane Test: Australia's regular opener Usman Khawaja has been ruled out of the upcoming second Test of the Ashes series due to the back injury he sustained nearly two weeks ago in Perth.
The hosts will now explore options to form an opening pair for the pink-ball match, with Khawaja’s Test future now uncertain. Josh Inglis and Beau Webster are both under consideration for a recall to Australia’s XI after Usman Khawaja was officially ruled out, though the selectors chose not to add a replacement to the squad.
Khawaja, who turns 39 later this month, spent around half an hour in the Gabba nets on Tuesday but looked uncomfortable throughout. His back issue has not improved enough for him to take part in the Test starting Thursday.
