Australian batter Usman Khawaja completed 8,000 international runs during the fourth Ashes Test. The 39-year-old veteran has not been having a memorable Ashes so far. His scores read 2, 82, 40, 29, and 0. Former Australian cricket team captain Michael Clarke has urged the veteran batter to retire before the fifth Ashes Test, saying Khawaja has the perfect chance to walk away with his head held high. "I think this will be Usman's farewell Test match. I don't think it's a token selection; they obviously picked him for Melbourne, so if they've gone that way, you pick him for Sydney as well," Clarke told Code Sports. "But I think he'll retire after this Test match. Australia will win the series. Hopefully, he goes out with a big score. I'd love to see Uz make a hundred at the SCG and walk away on a high because not many people get that opportunity."
