The biggest headache of Boxing Day Test is over! Jasprit Bumrah hunted Travis Head for the third time in the series
jasprit bumrah Bowled Travis Head: Australia's Travis Head remains the biggest bowler for Team India at present. However, it is a matter of happiness that in the first innings of Australia in the Boxing Day Test, this stormy batsman was able to stay on the field only 7 balls and without opening his account, the world number-1 Test bowler Jasprit Bumrah (jasprit bumrah) returned to the pavilion after being clean bowled on a sensational ball.
Yes, that's what happened. Travis Head, who had scored more than 400 runs in the first three matches of the current BGT series by scoring 2 dead hundreds and a half century, was out on a duck without opening the account in the Boxing Day Test being played at MCG. This entire incident happened in the 67th over of Australia's innings. Jasprit Bumrah delivered a sensational ball from round the wicket to Head, targeting the off stump, which Head dodged.
He went to leave this ball. Head felt that by doing this the edge of his bat would not hit the ball and after hitting the pitch, the ball would get so much bounce that it would not hit it even after being on the line of the stump. However, his entire guess proved wrong. This magical ball of Bumrah passed kissing the bails placed on top of the off stump and thus the story of Head ended. This is the reason why its video can be seen below.

It is noteworthy that in the current series, Travis Head, who has become the bane of Indian bowlers, has been seen asking for water in front of world number-1 Test bowler Jasprit Bumrah. He has faced 93 balls of Bumrah in which he has scored only 83 runs. During this, Bumrah has brought Head out on his knees thrice. On the other hand, Head has given wickets to other bowlers of the Indian team thrice, scoring 326 runs on 348 balls.
It is worth noting that despite Head being out on zero, it would not be right at all to say that Team India's headache in the Boxing-Day Test is over. This is because this time the top order of the host team has wreaked havoc. From debutant Sam Constas to Steve Smith, who batted at number 4, have played half-century innings. Sam Constas (60), Usman Khawaja (57) and Marnus Labuschagne (72) are out. At the time of writing, Steve Smith has scored 68 runs facing 111 balls and is fast moving towards his century. In such a situation, it will be very interesting to see whether Team India's batsmen can also do similar wonders or not.
