Khawaja hits century as Australia near 400 against England 

Canberra: Australian cricketer Usman Khawaja scored a memorable century on his return to Test cricket to strengthen country’s position in the fourth Ashes Test in Sydney after a double-wicket breakthrough by Stuart Broad on Thursday.   

Usman Khawaja marks his return to the Test side with a tremendous century before finally falling for 137 on day two of the fourth Ashes Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). 

Putting pressure on the selectors, Usman extended his Test career after scoring an undefeated 102 for Australia on his international return. 

Four years after bringing up a big century against England in the SCG Ashes Test, Khawaja repeated the dosage with his ninth career ton in the fourth Ashes Test. 

Dropped after the third Test of the 2019 Ashes, Khawaja was at peace with the idea of being on the "never-again" pile. 

Khawaja was unlikely to get another chance when Travis Head hit a ton in the first Test at the Gabba. 

It was followed by David Warner overcoming a rib injury in Adelaide, which placed further doubt on his Test career.

Then, out of nowhere, the Australian Head contracted coronavirus and the door opened for Khawaja to reclaim a spot at No.5 in Sydney. 

However, after Khawaja's exploits, there's now a fair argument that it shouldn't just be one game.  

Meanwhile, the Ashes are already gone for England after going down by an innings and 14 runs inside three days in the third Test at Melbourne to give Australia a 3-0 lead with two Tests to complete.
