Usman Khawaja says armband was not political after ICC reprimand
Australia's Usman Khawaja on Friday guaranteed that the dark armband he wore in the main Test against Pakistan was for a "individual loss" and not politically roused after the star hitter was denounced by the Worldwide Cricket Committee (ICC).
The 36-year-old wore the armband during the group's 360-run triumph in Perth, a move seen at the time as help for individuals in Gaza, where thousands have been killed.
He had needed to wear shoes embellished with the transcribed mottos "Opportunity is a basic freedom" and "All lives are equivalent" during the match, saying he had been hit hard by the Israel-Hamas struggle.
Yet, Pakistan-conceived Khawaja, who is Muslim, was informed that it mocked ICC decides on messages that connect with legislative issues, religion or race.
At the point when Cricket Australia (CA) communicated their expectations that the opener would maintain the guidelines, Usman Khawaja covered the trademarks with a hazy tape.
Notwithstanding, the words composed on his shoes remained to some degree apparent — just in close-up — in the shade of the Palestinian banner.
Khawaja demanded he told the ICC during the match that it was for an individual loss and had no profound significance.
Nonetheless, the ICC said it penetrated their apparel and hardware guidelines.
"Usman showed an individual message (armband) during the main Test match against Pakistan without looking for the earlier endorsement of Cricket Australia and the ICC to show it, as expected in the guidelines for individual messages," the ICC said late Thursday.
"This is a break under the classification of an 'other break' and the authorization for a first offense is a censure."
Khawaja said he wouldn't wear an armband during the second Test in Melbourne one week from now however stayed disobedient.
"No, I'm not wearing it once more. As I shared with the ICC, the armband was for an individual deprivation," he told columnists in Melbourne.
"The armband was different to my shoes. The shoes were hard to miss. Toward the day's end, I didn't wear the shoes. I regarded the standards and methods and left it at that."
He added that being censured for the armband "has neither rhyme nor reason" and highlighted different players who had recently placed stickers on their bats and names on their shoes without endorsement and got away from discipline, encouraging the ICC to be more steady.
"I will simply be asking and challenging that they (ICC) make it fair for everybody and they have consistency by they way they direct. That is all I request, and according to my perspective, that consistency hasn't been finished at this point," he said.
