ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Australia batsman Usman Khawaja says there will be no room for sentiment when the first ball is bowled in the opening test against Pakistan this week, though he acknowledges it will be "very special" to play in the country of his birth.
Born in Islamabad, Khawaja was four-years-old when his parents moved to Sydney. The 35-year-old is part of the Australia team on their first tour of Pakistan in 24 years.
