Ashes 2019: Usman Khawaja has no doubt over Australia's ability to overcome Headingley defeat

The Hindu  

Usman Khawaja insisted England's miraculous triumph in the third Test at Headingley has only fuelled Australia's desire to retain the Ashes. Ben Stokes' inspired display kept the five-Test series alive as host England amassed its highest ever fourth-innings run chase in Leeds, where the host prevailed by one wicket last week. Australia, however, will be able to welcome talisman Steve Smith back to the fold for the Old Trafford Test after the star batsman missed the Headingley clash due to a concussion sustained at Lord's. Khawaja acknowledged Australia's defeat was a tough blow to take, but he has no doubt the tourist will bounce back before the end of the series, with one win from the two remaining Tests enough to retain the urn.
