The altercation between Travis Head and Mohammed Siraj was one of the highlights of the second day of Adelaide Test between Australia and India. Siraj had picked up Head’s wicket and an ugly confrontation between the two players followed.
However, Head took back the revenge on the third day with a fine catch to dismiss Siraj. Fast bowler Scott Boland bowled a length ball which Siraj tried to deposit into the stands. But he didn’t connect well and instead got a top edge.
The ball went towards short midwicket and Travis Head, who was stationed at short leg, went back quickly and took a clean catch. Head tumbled while completing the catch but ensured to keep it within his grasp.
