Australia vs India 2018-19: 5 interesting storylines that could determine the outcome of the Test series

#4 Will Usman Khwaja be the Man?

Usman Khwaja will have the spotlight shining brightly on him when he walks out to the middle

He's fitter, more confident and recently (in his stint as a commentator with Fox) he has shown that he's not afraid to speak his mind even in front of the Aussie legends of the past.

Australia have been waiting and waiting for Usman Khwaja to come good, and it's been a long time coming, but in UAE it seemed that something had clicked in Khwaja. He was the de facto leader of the batting unit and played with such poise that the Pakistani bowlers found it really hard to get him out.

Coming into this series almost everyone has billed Khwaja to be the man that carries the Australian ship to safety. But like always, the question remains: will Khwaja finally be the Man?
