Australia opener Usman Khawaja vowed to fight for his right to express humanitarian views on the field after ICC disallowed him from wearing written messages on his shoes, apparently with reference to the war in Gaza, when the AUS VS PAK 1st Test begins on Thursday.
The charismatic cricketer of Pakistani origin had "all lives are equal" and "freedom is a human right" clearly visible on his batting spikes during Tuesday`s training session and was reportedly planning to wear them during the inaugural Test.
