The third match of the ongoing series between India and Australia has ended in a draw. Even after three matches, the series is tied. However, there are still two matches left and that will decide where the series and the trophy will go. Meanwhile, when the third match ended on the last day, it suddenly came to light that Australia’s ace batsman and Travis Head, who played brilliantly against Team India, was injured. After this, fears were expressed that Travis Head may be out of the next match. However, after the end of the match, when Australian captain Pat Cummins came to talk to the media, the picture became completely clear. Additionally, Travis Head has also given an update regarding his fitness.
Travis Head did not come out for fielding on the last day
Travis Head batted for his team on the last day as well. In the second innings, he played a short innings of 17 runs on 19 balls and became the victim of Mohammad Siraj. The Australian team accomplished the task for which it had entered the field in the second innings. The team’s effort was to bat early and set a target for Team India. However, as soon as the Indians came in to bat, it started raining from the beginning of the third over. After this the match was declared a draw. The special thing was that during Team India’s innings, Travis Head did not come to the field for fielding.
Travis Head slightly swollen, but expected to be fit for next match
Now if we talk about Travis Head, he is complaining of slight swelling in his leg. First the news came that Head had suffered a groin injury. He may not be available for the fourth Test to be held from December 26. But when Head was given the Player of the Match award, he himself gave an update on his injury. Travis Head said that he has a slight swelling, which will go away before the next match. Along with this, Captain Pat Cummins also said that there is nothing to worry about. There is still a lot of time for the next match. The physio and the rest of the team are with the head, hopefully he will recover soon and be fit for the next match.
Head has scored more than 400 runs in this series
Travis Head may not have come to bat in the fourth innings of the match, but he has performed brilliantly. Till now Head has scored 409 runs. His average is 80. Travis Head has become the biggest enemy of the Indian cricket team today. Whenever he comes out, he plays only big innings. In such a situation, his not being fit could have been good news for Team India, but it is not so. It remains to be seen how he bats when he takes the field for the next test.
