Scott Boland joins Usman Khawaja in brutal development as family details come to light

Scott Boland He has joined Aussie Test Teammate Usman Khawaja As the last renowned Crick star ruled out the Sheffield Shield game from his state. Khawaja’s decision not to be available For Queensland’s selection, it has caused a violent reaction, and the Bulls need to overcome the leaders of southern Australia in the final round of the regular season to qualify for the decisive that will be organized by its opponents in Karen Rolton Oval of Adelaide.

Victoria also has the opportunity to reach the final if they defeat Western Australia in Waca, but will depend on southern Australia to do a favor by knocking down the Khawaja bulls. And the hopes of the Victorians to ensure victory have received a significant blow, with the discarded Boland testing of the mandatory shock with knee pain.

Boland collected the injury after the defeat of Victoria against South Australia and, unless his men can ensure his place in the final of the shield, the Paceman will undergo a prolonged rest period, before building the final of the World Testing Championship of Australia against South Africa in June. Boland is expected to make some light bowling in Melbourne and appear in up to three training fields in Brisbane that Cricket Australia has planned for the test team.

Veteran Quick Peter Siddle has been included in the team of 13 Men of Victoria at the expense of Boland, while Victoria will also be driven by Will Sutherland’s return for the match against WA, after the captain rested against South Australia. Victoria has also called the former Wa Quick David Moody since the bottom of some impressive exhibitions for the second XI of Victoria.

Khawaja opts outside QLD as family detail arises

However, the biggest headlines have been Khawaja’s decision not to play for Queensland, with the Australian legend Ian Healy among those to criticize the measure. Khawaja and CA have carefully managed the veteran’s cryket schedule and there are suggestions that he is also anxious to spend a quality time with the family, during the sacred month of Ramadan that occupies a special place for Khawaja and his Muslim faith. It has also argued that Khawaja has chosen to fly to Melbourne to spend the weekend with his family watching the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix.

It occurs after Queensland’s Cricket told Yahoo Sport Australia that Khawaja just wanted to play one of the two shield games that followed his return from Sri Lanka, and that he did not want to take the place of a younger player who had been in the team throughout the season. Marnus Labuschagne has replaced Khawaja after his return from the Champions Trophy, and the officials will call for the availability of the test stars for the final if they succeed.

But the absence of the opener is particularly revealing, since he made winning scores of a 127 and 33 match not in Queensland’s victory over Tasmania that gave the Bulls the opportunity to qualify for the final of the shield. And if the bulls finally qualify for the decisive shield, Khawaja could be available again.

Discussing the situation in Sen Radio on Friday, the former testkeopeper of test and proud Queensland Healy said that Cricket Australia should ask questions if a player of Khawaja stature does not want to play in such a crucial game. Others have suggested that it shows that the shield does not take into account particularly, and is best summarized by the fact that the winners obtain less than $ 100,000 despite the fact that Cricket Australia is worth an estimated $ 80 million.

“I have Australia Cricket under the pump and they should feel some pressure,” said Healy. “I am not sure who the relevant department is. It is the Cricket department, the CEO who is the Chief of Administration or the Board.

“The board must be horrified that Usman Khawaja has chosen not to play the last round of the Sheffield Shield competition to take his condition to the final. For the Australian Cricket: his contracted player does not play his long -standing competence. Our Cricket needs to be based on integrity, skill and ‘Ticker’, not the absence.”

Khawaja’s schedule has been carefully managed by CA in recent years and that will continue to be the way for the 38 -year -old, before a great year that could be the last one in the test cryket. C is clearly aware that Khawaja plays consecutive games with one eye in the June WTC final and a series of ashes at home later in the year.
