BGT: Ponting Feels Head Plays In A Style Similar To Gilchrist

By IANS News December 13, 2024 • 11:24 AM View: 899

World Test Championship: Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting believes left-handed batter Travis Head is well on his way to becoming one of the batting greats of the modern-day game.

Head was named Player of the Match after scoring a stunning 140 off 141 balls to help Australia beat India by ten wickets in the day-night Test at the Adelaide Oval and help the hosts’ level the five-match series at 1-1.

Head has been India’s nemesis over the last 18 months – making magnificent 163 in the 2023 World Test Championship final and a match-winning 137 in the ODI World Cup final later that year.
