A bad news is coming for Australia before the fourth Test match against India to be held in Melbourne. The team's dangerous batsman Travis Head may be out of the fourth test due to a waist injury. Head is the highest run-scorer for Australia in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy and if he does not play in the fourth match, it will be a big blow for Australia while it will be good news for the Indian fans.
There is not much information about how serious Head's injury is at the moment, but Head himself and captain Pat Cummins are hopeful that he will be fit before the Melbourne Test. In the post-match presentation after being named man of the match, Head said, “To be honest, I feel like it's been a long time since I batted. I'm happy to contribute, score some runs and help us bat in the first innings.” It felt good to do it. It was a challenging wicket, I am happy that I was able to win the match and set the team up.”
Speaking further, he said, “I was trying to summarize the conditions, I think I have done well in this series so far, I am very happy with the pace I am batting. Communication with Smith It was good, he (Smith) seemed to be in great form, I got a lot of confidence while batting with him, it was a good partnership, really enjoyed it when I come out on the field for the first time. Dealing with challenges and various problems “Just trying to sort it out. Just a little bit of pain, but I'll be fine (before the next match).”
Head has said that he will be fit before the next test, but it is also possible that he is not yet revealing the seriousness of his injury, in such a situation, if the news of Head being out comes in the coming days. If so then no one should be surprised. If you are an Indian fan then you must be praying that he does not play the next match.
