Upset with the events transpiring in Gaza, Usman Khawaja was planning to display a show of solidarity on field in the 1st PAK vs AUS TestAustralia skipper Pat Cummins assured that opener Usman Khawaja won’t be displaying a pro-Palestine message during AUS vs PAK 1st Test. The captain’s remarks comes after Cricket Australia warned Khawaja to stop in his tracks, noting that it was against the rules set by the ICC. Cummins, however, said that he did not find anything wrong with Khawaja’s ‘all lives matter’ remark and that he supported it. During one of the practice sessions too, he wore shoes, that read, ‘Freedom is a human right’ and ‘All lives are equal’. Meanwhile, Khawaja told the Sydney Morning Herald, that he would wear the shoes on the first day of play as well.
