    Average of 43, 2 hundreds, 15 50's. Is he that technically sound though? Looks like the stereotypical 'bowling machine batsman', plonks on his front foot, his pad gets in the way and has trouble with the moving ball. His ratio of LBW's and bowled is far too high for such a talented player.

    I agree on Khawaja though, slips would be licking their lips they way he gets squared up to anything back of a length, not to mention he suffers a bit from Watson's four or nothing syndrome.
    I will take an average of 43 from an opening batsman every day of the week. I have no isue with a batsman getting on the front foot as opposed to those getting on the back foot giving catching practice to slippers and gully

        Heard this morning they're going to pull Khwaja out after day 2 to play in the Junk food slog game. Why are they announcing the side before this chairman's game?

          Its apparently because Clarkes pulled out and they need another big name...
