During Australia’s third and final Test match against Pakistan at Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), Khawaja reached this significant milestone. Aamer Jamal dismissed Khawaja after he had scored 47 off 143 balls in Australia’s opening innings. His knock had four boundaries in it. With an average of 44.70, Khawaja has scored 7,019 runs in 118 international matches thus far. In 170 innings, he has amassed 17 hundreds and 38 fifties, with the highest bowling figures of 195*.

Khawaja has amassed 1,554 runs at an average of 42.0 in 39 innings over 40 ODIs, including two hundreds and twelve fifties. His highest rating is 104. In nine T20Is for Australia, he has also scored 241 runs at an average of 26.77 with a fifty-score in nine innings. His highest rating is 58. Aamer Jamal removed Australia’s Khawaja shortly before the second session ended, leaving Australia at 116/2 on the second day of the third and final Test match between Australia and Pakistan at Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) on Thursday.

Australia was 116/2 at Tea, with Steve Smith (6) and Marnus Labuschagne (23) undefeated. Australia led 78/1 at the beginning of the second session thanks to wins from Usman Khawaja (35) and Marnus Labuschagne (3). Instead of taking any chances against the bowlers from Pakistan, Khawaja and Labuschagne mostly relied on strike rotation. In 38.4 overs, Australia reached the 100-run milestone. Khawaja appeared to be heading towards his half-century, but his 143-ball, 47-run innings ended when Mohammed Rizwan caught him behind, and Aamer Jaamal took the wicket. Australia scored 108/2.

Australia was led by Steve Smith and Labuschagne through the remainder of the session, which was cut short by poor lighting. In the first session, Khawaja and David Warner shared an opening stand of 78 runs during Warner’s final Test match. Warner scored four boundaries and was out for 34 off of 68 balls. Quick Scores: Pakistan: 313 (Mohammed Rizwan 88, Aamer Jamal 82, Pat Cummins 5/61) leads Australia: 116/2 (Usman Khawaja 47, David Warner 34, Agha Salman 1/18) by 197 runs.
