BGT: Bangar, Pujara Offer Advice To Team India On How To Counter Head At MCG
Boxing Day Test: With the threat of Travis Head looming large on India ahead of the Boxing Day Test starting on December 26 in Melbourne, Sanjay Bangar and Cheteshwar Pujara have spelt out advise to the visitors’ on how to stop the left-handed batter from getting big runs.
Despite being dismissed for just 11 in his first innings of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, Head has gone on to smash 89, 140 and 152 in his next three outings. The knock of 140 was instrumental in giving Australia a ten-wicket win at his home ground, Adelaide Oval.
Head had previously hit centuries against India in 2023 World Test Championship final and ODI World Cup final to give Australia title wins. Bangar, the former India batting coach, asked for India to try a round-the-wicket bowling angle when Head is fresh at the crease.
