Khawaja, playing his first Test since the 2019 Ashes series in England, was at his unflappable best in compiling 137 off 260 balls to put Australia in charge.
Marnus Labuschagne paid tribute to stand-in skipper Steve Smith for leading Australia by example in the absence of Pat Cummins in the second Ashes Test at the Adelaide Oval.
Marnus Labuschagne got lucky during the closing stages of Day 1 of the second Ashes Test in Adelaide, with Jos Buttler shelling a fairly straightforward chance when the batter was on 95. It was Buttler’s second drop of the day, after he’d missed a tough chance earlier when Labuschagne was on 21.
