[PICTURES/VIDEOS] Travis Head: The man for the big stage against India

[jnaveen1980]

Cheteshwar Pujara shares his insights on how India’s bowlers can tackle Travis Head’s counterattack during an analysis on a local sports channel:

“Line is very important. Keep middle-off stumps line, Even if you are bowling over the stumps or around the wicket, don’t let the middle stump play as off-stump."

"The line should always be middle-off. In that line, he [Travis Head] looks very uncomfortable."

Almost all teams have figured him out apart from a few innings except Rohit sharma. But you have to have proper field set on the off side. Rohit completely opens that cordon.

That's a horrible strategy lol, it'll only work with the new ball.

Travis is literally the best offside player in the world. You gotta bowl legside to him since once he's onsong he usually struggles with the pull shot.

99% of his dismissals are pull shot dismissals once he is set.

When Travis head is new, yes the middle offstump line bothers him but so does every delivery.

Travis Head's issue is that he either gets out quickly or game over for the opposition unless Bumrah does something

Travis Head is my favourite Australian batsman, before it was Clarke and Hayden. That world cup knock was too good, I thought India was going to win. One of the top knocks in a world cup final where home team had the upper hand.

 

[FearlessRoar]

He is currently the most run-getter of the series

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Just wish he plays another spectacular knock again...but after a great run, the failure is always due.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Let's hope he delivers too tomorrow finger

It's Travis's birthday

The Australian batter turns 30 day and may bat today too on his big day against India on the Day 4 of the Boxing day Test. So will he go big today or fail?

Head has failed completely in the 4th test. Bumrah got the better of him in both innings.

 

[pillionrider]

We don't have anyone who can do this against them, so let's keep track of someone who can

Headache for a reason

Travis Head's scores against India on big stages (ICC tournaments/series deciders) show how much he loves playing against India in important games!
