Justin Langer deserves the opportunity to coach Australia in T20 World Cup and the Ashes: Usman Khawaja

Usman Khawaja, whose clash with Justin Langer was shown in a documentary on the team last year, called on players to stop undermining Langer through the media, saying the latter would feel like those in the team are "stabbing him in the back".

Australia's Usman Khawaja backed head coach has backed head coach Justin Langer to lead the team through the Ashes. Khawaja also called on players to stop undermining Langer through the media, saying the latter would feel like those in the team are "stabbing him in the back". Langer's position has been under the spotlight after multiple media reports that players have wearied of his intense coaching style. The reports have been doing the rounds since Australia's home defeat to India in a four-match Test series in January this year.
