8 players who made their T20I debut when India last played a T20I series in Australia

#6 Usman Khawaja

Khawaja's aggressive style led to his maiden T20I call-up

The left-handed batsman made his T20I debut for Australia in the final match of the series against India. Opening the innings along with Shane Watson, Usman Khawaja scored a quick-fire 14 off 6 before losing his wicket to Ashish Nehra.

Khawaja was included in the WT20 squad of his nation due to his solid performances in the Big Bash League. Usman has represented Australia in 9 T20Is and has scored 241 runs at a strike-rate of 132.41. He played his last T20I in 2016 and has not been a part of the squad ever since; though he is one of the cornerstones of the current Australian Test side.

Usman Khawaja's aggressive batting style had attracted the Rising Pune Supergiant franchise as he played for the IPL franchise in 2016 and 2017.
