Still don’t understand how he didn’t make a place in the WC squad.

Usman Khawaja in the last 2 ODI tours to Asia (vs India and Pakistan):

Innings – 10
Runs – 655
Average – 65.5
100s/50s – 2/5

Dominating Asian bowlers in Asia is not everyone’s cup of tea. In the past 5 years, Australia have won only 2 ODI series in Asia, and he was a standout performer in both series.

In 2019, he scored 383 runs at an average of 76.6, holding the record of most runs by a batsman in India in a 5-match ODI series.

#Throwback to 2019. #Throwback

Still don’t understand how he didn’t make a place in the WC squad. He’s been in great form. Australia need a player like him as they are struggling badly on indian pitches. They have lost their both opening matches, and their performance in Word Cup 2023 is blow average so far.
