Australia's head coach, Andrew McDonald, stated that the selectors have received no hints from veteran opening batsman Usman Khawaja regarding his future. The coach also confirmed that the left-hander will be selected for the fifth and final Test match.

Khawaja's future in the Australian team looks uncertain. There are rumours that the cricketer might take a call in the fifth Test match as Australia won't be playing another Test match until the Bangladesh series, which is scheduled for August.
