Usman Khawaja received a standing ovation as he left the SCG at tea after scoring a comeback century to savour. Not since Allan Border has a Queensland captain received so much love in Sydney, yet like Border, he was raised in New South Wales and began his career there. His 9th Test century was one of his very best on an up and down surface. He has held the innings together with supreme class. He made his debut at the SCG in the Ashes in 2011. In the next Test in Sri Lanka, Nathan Lyon made his debut. Lyon is playing his 104th Test and Khawaja just his 45th. It's hard to believe given how well he has played.
