Usman Khawaja has batted very well throughout the course of the series but in the fourth Test, the cricketer joined the elite list of Australian openers who managed to score 150+ runs in a Test match in India. Jim Burke was the first Australian opener to do so in 1956 in Mumbai, which was followed by Graham Yallot in 1979 in Kolkata. Matthew Hayden was the last cricketer to achieve this feat (203 runs in the 2001 Kolkata Test).
