IND and OFF: Australian batsman Travis Head has been a major concern for all opposing teams playing against the Aussies across all formats in recent times. Currently, Head is dominating the Indian side in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy and is batting surprisingly with his back-to-back hundreds.

Cheteshwar Pujara In a recent show with Star Sports, he shared that Indian pacers should stick to mid-on and leg-stump for the Australian left-handed batsman. The Travis Head becomes very powerful once it reaches the minimum width outside the stump; hence Pujara suggests not offering him that breadth.

In addition, he also suggested that the bowlers should bowl random deliveries around mid-stump and bowl some surprise bouncers to surprise them better to bowl them out.

Travis Head, who scored 140 in Adelaide and 152 against India at the Gabba, if dismissed early, could be a huge asset to India considering their chances in BGT.

The Indian side are competing in the World Test Championship for the first time and the Indian side is in a difficult situation in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy with India’s batting order collapsing on many occasions.

Known as India’s greatest ground of success, the MCG test will be the venue for the decisive Boxing Day test. India’s batting concerns can only be resolved if the skipper returns to form.

Speaking in a recent podcast, former Aussie legend Michael Clarke suggested Rohit Sharma get back into form and backed him to score big in the Boxing Day test in India. This will raise huge hopes for India to get their most explosive Test batsman back on track, but it looks certain that the skipper will continue to drop down the order at no. 6.
