It is special to play in Pakistan: Usman Khawaja

When the first ball of the first Test against Babar Azam’s team is bowled, Usman Khawaja believes there will be no place for feeling when Australia embarks on a historic tour of Pakistan.

Khawaja, who was born in Islamabad and migrated to Australia at the age of four, admits that playing in his country will be “extremely meaningful.” “That emotion is unmistakable, but once the game begins, you don’t care.”

Khawaja earned his place in the team on the tour with two hundred against England in his first test in more than two years in Sydney. For a long time, I’ve been playing. While I haven’t played for Australia for some time, I look forward to playing every match for the team.

Khawaja expects a good welcome in Rawalpindi, Karachi, and Lahore, as well as Pakistani fans applauding the visitors’ high-quality cricket.

In Pakistan, I’ve always got a lot of help. They’ll most likely back me up and pray for runs, but they’ll also be cheering for Australia’s destruction.” He said that with a grin.

However, I do not anticipate a hostile response. Pakistanis enjoy cricket and place a great value on it, so I’m sure that’s what they’re looking for.

Rawalpindi will host the first test on Friday.
