Australia Skipper Acknowledges Travis Head's Importance in Pink Ball Test

Travis Head turned out to be Team India's biggest headache in the pink ball test after he raked up runs and his explosive innings of 140 off 141 were like a cherry on top for Australia. Head helped the Aussies to bounce back in the BGT as the series is now levelled at 1-1. Skipper Pat Cummins particularly praised Head's fiery display and acknowledged his importance in the Adelaide Test.

"It feels like every time he walks out, the game's kind of in the balance, it can go one or two ways and, within the space of a session or so he really takes the game out of their (India) hands, and he just pressures right back onto the opposition, hits into weird areas and he feels like there's a small opportunity, to up the anti and again just take the game away from the opposition. He's done it time and time again for us in many different formats and, yeah, he's super impressive," Cummins added.
