Usman will pursue aviation career only after his playing days

BIPIN DANI

PUNE (India) - Usman Khawaja, the first Pakistani-born player to represent Australia will pursue his aviation career only after his playing days are over, insisted his manager Daniel Zammit. 

Speaking to this scribe immediately after the inclusion of Usman Khawaja in the Australian Test squad to play in the Sydney's Ashes Test against England, the manager said, "Usman Khawaja is a pilot and like his father, Tariq Khawaja (a computer engineer working for IBM), he too went to university for degree. He has a degree in aviation and as a commercial pilot often flies aeroplanes but will make his career in aviation only after retirement from cricket. He is presently focussing only on the game". 

Usman Khawaja needed to score 85 in his school finals to qualify for the pilot course at university and he scored 90 (the result had come on his birthday). 

Usman Khawaja, however, may not be the first cricketer to pursue his career in aviation. The former West Indian fast bowler, Colin Croft, in his private life, having been an Air Traffic Controller from 1973 to 1981, while also playing cricket for the West Indies cricket team, he has also obtained a Commercial Airline Pilot's licence in the USA, with endorsements for the UK, and worked as a Commercial Pilot in the Caribbean.
