Usman Khawaja bunkers down as book tour ‘adjusted’ amid ball-tampering claims

Former Australia Test batter Usman Khawaja's promotional book tour has been partially disrupted following questions about ball-tampering claims raised during an appearance on the ABC's 7:30 Report. Khawaja withdrew from several radio and television spots on Wednesday, with publisher Penguin confirming the tour had not been cancelled but that changes had been made to his schedule. Khawaja was reportedly evasive when questioned about the specific claims during the ABC interview.
