During his time at the crease, Travis Head amassed 140 runs with 17 fours and four sixes before Mohammed Siraj clean bowled him.
On Saturday, December 7, Australian middle-order batsman Travis Head was seen receiving an aggressive farewell from star Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj. On the fourth delivery of the 82nd over of Australia's opening innings, Siraj clean bowled Head. The two can be seen fighting verbally after Siraj broke through Head's defense and rocked his stumps. Siraj then bid him farewell.
Following Head's firing, a video of Siraj's response and the verbal altercation between the two is currently going viral online.Head faced 141 balls in all and scored 140 runs with 17 fours and 4 sixes before heading back to the pavilion. Along with Alex Carey (15), he contributed 74 runs for the sixth wicket and 65 runs for the fourth wicket with Marnus Labuschagne (64).
Head created a lovely celebration to commemorate the birth of his second child after reaching his century in 111 balls.
Only Marnus Labuschagne has amassed more triple-digit runs in day-night Tests than Head, who achieved his third century against India on Saturday. Head also set a new record for the fastest century in day-night Test cricket, reaching his century in 111 balls.
Siraj provides a vital link.
Head was batting on 76 runs during the second session of the second day's play when Siraj provided him a lifeline. The ball soared straight up when the Australian batter attempted a huge shot against Ravichandran Ashwin but was unable to make contact. Siraj had an opportunity to make an easy catch, but he was unable to take advantage of it.
Head, who had been given a lifeline, made Siraj and India pay for it by scoring 64 runs. This not only helped the hosts win the match after losing Steve Smith and Nathan McSweeney early on Day 2, but it also increased the margin in the first innings above 125 runs.
