Mohali: Usman Khawaja termed his maiden hundred in ODI as a 'huge thing' simply because the first one is always difficult to get. Khawaja hit a 104-run knock and shared a 193 run stand with captain and fellow opener Aaron Finch to play a significant role in Australia's 32-run win in the third ODI. "Yeah it's huge.

The first one is always hardest - no matter what you're playing. It's obviously a special one. I found the same thing in Test cricket as well as in one-day cricket. I got that 98 before a few years ago, it was frustrating and disappointing,¿ said Khwaja. Australia have won an overseas ODI for the first time since 2017 and Khawaja is absolutely delighted.
