Rishabh Pant is a player who loves attacking the opposition, but coming in before the 20th over at No. 5 doesn’t let him play his best game. His aggressive style can make a big impact later in the innings when conditions are better for counter-attacking cricket. In Perth, India’s top order showed the importance of patience. They handled the tough new ball in the 2nd innings & once the bowlers got tired & the ball softened, the middle order took advantage. It was a great example of how Test cricket should be played. The Perth pitch changed a lot over the match. On Day 1 it helped the seamers but by Day 2 it became more balanced. By Day 3, it started cracking up. Data showed the seam movement dropped by half from Day 1 to Day 2. We saw a similar pattern in Brisbane. McSweeney & Khawaja worked hard in tough conditions early on, setting the stage for Smith & Head to score later when batting was easier. This shows the nature of the kookaburra ball. It’s dangerous in the first 20 overs but becomes easier to play after that. The top order’s job is to survive the new ball & the teams that handle this phase better tend to succeed. India might need to rethink their batting order. Rohit Sharma could bat at No. 3 with Kohli at 4 & Gill at 5. Gill is talented but often loses his wicket early at No. 3. Moving down the order could help him play more freely. Pant could then come in at No. 6 facing a softer ball & tired bowlers. The series has also shown how well the lower order has performed. Players like Carey, Reddy, & Jadeja have done well because they’ve come in when the ball has softened & the bowlers are worn out. This is why India’s middle order looked so strong in Perth..the openers did their job creating perfect conditions for the rest. In Melbourne the stakes are high. India hasn’t lost there since 2011 & this match could decide the series with Sydney usually producing draws. Australia might be slight favorites, but at 1-1..India has a strong chance...
The main reason i feel travis head does best against bumrah is his playing style when we call about the "top of off stump length" , bumrah is a master in it , but travis head has actually cracked the code , he is ready for the balls top of off as he is already on his backfooot , ready for cuts and punches , it is very evident that in early part of the innings trvais struggles against ball pitching full , also he had trouble against jadeja , where india didn't take a review , all plans can work against other players , but not travis , if bumrah need to get travis out , you need to ball on his body either full or short , the player who is so good cutter and splasher of the ball cannot be dismissed by the top of off delievery.
that's really interesting - with India coming to England this summer i'm thinking that Crawley & Pope won't crack that code but i can see Duckett, Root & Brook having a chance... i think England will produce pretty batter friendly pitches because they want their team ready for Oz and they also don't want to face India on green swingers as that could make Bumrah unstoppable. Looking at the venues, the only ones not ideal for him are Lords, because he's got little experience on the slope and OT because it requires a change in length from the first 3 tests and the bounce is something he'll find different to the first 3 tests.
Wood bowled a beamer to head straight at his ribs. Even that didn't helped , head has improved on short balls. He now plays uppercuts and leaves the balls at his body that is why he is not getting out.
The thing is..U shld consider it since the 2021 ashes because that is when head changes his stance and the way he goes about it yk..And since then i’ve never seen him uncomfortable against bumrah..His avg is increasing against bumrah day by day.Ig it’s 40 now…
@@mohibjaved1284It's happens.Its like we should consider overall Average. Like Kevin Peterson struggle against great Macgrath but in 2006 ashes Peterson scores against Macgrath with an average of 80.❤❤
Yeah and he's gonna do that no matter how many times bumrah gets him out because he's got that winners mindset I love this battle so much! It always feels more thrilling and challenging whenever I see someone dominating against the most dominant force in the cricketing world of the modern generation What an eye pleasing experience
I suppose an option is to go over the wicket and stack the leg side field, pitch it on leg stump and see what happens. Nothing else has worked so might as well do bodyline.
Head is headmaster of hyped Pant's cricket school.... Travis, my friend, show who you are.... Boxing day match will be fun with Kohli still protecting his 20th wicket as per his practice sessions
Over the wicket against Travis Head is the best because you also get the natural angle and more ways to dismiss him. I think bumrah is bowling around the wicket because of naveen ul haq, two times naveen got head by bowling around the wicket but again the problem there is head is a opener in white ball cricket and the swing generated in indian and carribean conditions are different from australian conditions.
The reason Travis scores against bumrah is he comes when the ball gets old and don't do much .if head faces bumrah with new ball then I don't think he can score
Yes, two times he faced new balls he failed not only against bumrah but all bowlers. Head came when new ball threat is closed by their top order , although they didn't make too many runs but they did the work. That is the problem from Indian top order, India should think that they are wasting rishabh pant, if they can handle the new ball threat pant will be a match winner just like head 😊
If your good team that’s when head should be coming in. He isn’t an opener he bats at 5 what the hell do u expect Australia to always be down 4 but the 10th over. And head can score against anyone in the world his average against bumrah this series is 42.
Since the ashes 2021 Travis head has smashed 15 100's across formats including 3 100's in ICC events & AUS have won 14 matches..... he's been a different beast since the ashes
Old or new,head never goes in the shell and attempts to be over defensive He plays bumrah with utmost confidence which makes him easily the best better in current times
Why are you only covering Aus vs Ind? Why not about Temba Bavuma's resurgence in Test? About Joe Root's unstoppable form? About Kamindu Mendis? About KG Rabada? Is it because you want more engagement from Indians? Is that the case why you always speak in favour of Indian cricket?
To say that Head has been scoring easily against Bumrah is criminal. The guys huffs and puffs while making those runs. Now maybe its his way of scoring. Slashing hard knowing that even a edge will get 4 works when Rohit is the captain probably works.
Head was player of the series in ashes 2021, he scored 92 vs SA on an unplayable pitch at Gabba rated poor by ICC where no other batter crossed 50 runs.... he's got 15 100's across formats in the last 3 years & AUS have won all matches...he was again player of the series in Odi bilateral series vs Eng in eng this yr......he's got runs in every condition vs all bowlers...watch some cricket before you spew garbage
Head is the best player on the planet???? Are you serious?? Bumrah is the best no argument. But Head is NOT the best player on the planet ATM.. totally brain fart that Jarrod
One reason I thought India would do well in Aus was they would have Kuldeep. He would have been the perfect bowler to Head, taking the ball away and having a good googly, extracting bounce as well. I don't know why the selectors lost faith in him. They claim he was injured.
Leave all the old things what happened in last 3 , because India is now thinking this is 2 match series, they've to win only one match to embrass Australia once again. And it will be a huge loss for captain pat Cummins who has achieved everything as a captain. Now the series get more intense.
It's not mind boggling... Indian pitches suits specially spinners not fast bowlers.... But foreign condition suits pace bowlers more as compared to spinners.... That's it....he has born in wrong country....otherwise he could have surpass the top most fast bowlers 🎉🎉🎉
The problem with it being down to Bumrah and Head is that Head makes one mistake and he's out, Bumrah finds one unplayable delivery and Head is out... Both teams need their top 4 to go bigger in terms of runs & balls faced but for Head & Carey you have Rahul, Reddy & Jadeja - Smith needs a Daddy and ideally before they get to Sydney.
Head plays both the cut and the flick well. India need to attack the fourth stump line. Slightly away from the line he cuts it for a boundary or flicks it for a single.
We have once in a century bowler in Bumrah who is best in every format. Averages less than 20 in tests and you are telling me that Head is that level? @@Sportystic
Head is not being put in bumrah's league It's just that no other batter has faced bumrah so well in all the three formats as much as head has done that too consistently with a positive intent close to none I can understand that he has been lucky sometimes but you can't solely rely on luck against a bowler of bumrah's calibre which proves even more vehemently how good of a batsman Head is! Bumrah has been the best for atleast half a decade now and his consistency and versatility has been second to none
@@RedsoilGPT Head has single handedly won 2 icc trophies by himself..... He's got 15 100's across formats in the last 3 years & AUS have won all the matches..... that's his impact.... bumrah hasn't done shit when it matters....
India need a fresh bowler, someone fast, something Like that youngsters Mayank Yadav or a left arm quick, I feel like all the Australian Left handers feel quite comfortable against our bowlers apart from khwaja who is having to face Bumrah with New ball, i know Mayank Yadav has not played long format and his most probably his body is not there yet, but we can still try him in one test match

Travis head as good as he might be is no where as the greats coz simply scoring couple of hundreds doesn't cut it. Wait for him to be a constantl6 great at this stuff
Don't let him take boundaries by having fielder inside the circle and bowl to the field let him take 80-90 singles to complete a 100 bore him just like sehwag we are giving him easy runs by bowling without a strategy.🙏

Yea just for this reason alone i miss pujara. He was the main reason behind pants success. He literally made the ball old with his long knocks.

@@CarlinConnolly england will make batting friendly pitches for sure
The series distilled into two players.
The Indian bowlers have bowled poor line and lengths to Head. Nobody bothered to bowl him bouncers at his ribs.
@kevinroark5815 one problem is you need someone who can extract steep bounce. Krishna probably can, but akash and Siraj are more skiddy...
"bouncer at his ribs"
That wouldn't a bouncer, that would be an invitation to get pulled to the boundary.
Tbh head improved a lot on bouncers..
Wood bowled a beamer to head straight at his ribs. Even that didn't helped , head has improved on short balls. He now plays uppercuts and leaves the balls at his body that is why he is not getting out.
@@Anand70707Not with Head Early on in his innings. He'll hit a six, a four and get caught out at deep fine.
I mean an average 32 is generally very poor against a bowler but against bumrah it's fine and even good
42 avg this series v bumrah.
The thing is..U shld consider it since the 2021 ashes because that is when head changes his stance and the way he goes about it yk..And since then i’ve never seen him uncomfortable against bumrah..His avg is increasing against bumrah day by day.Ig it’s 40 now…
@@mohibjaved1284It's happens.Its like we should consider overall Average. Like Kevin Peterson struggle against great Macgrath but in 2006 ashes Peterson scores against Macgrath with an average of 80.❤❤
It's a lot. If somebody is scoring 32 against your best bowler, it means he's scoring 100 every innings against all of your bowlers combined.
I think Boland will destroy India that guy is dangerous in Australian conditions
Bumrah vs Head is what the contest should have been hyped up from the beginning.
It's interesting that both are of the same age,head is thought of as a youngster whereas bumrah a senior and veteran already
Most of the Aussie test players are older than him. In the first three tests this series, only McSweeney is younger.
Who considers head as young he is a senior player by now
Nobody is saying Travis Head is a youngster. He might be thought of as a youngster only by the ign0rant...
Tbh the only player i’ve seen that is comfortable against him.. hit’s him every time and gets easy boundaries off him
Yeah and he's gonna do that no matter how many times bumrah gets him out because he's got that winners mindset
I love this battle so much! It always feels more thrilling and challenging whenever I see someone dominating against the most dominant force in the cricketing world of the modern generation
What an eye pleasing experience
Just rename the trophy to ‘Bumrah Head Trophy’ already 😂

Head 🐐 vs Bumrah 🐐
I have no idea how the physics of Head’s strokes work. Fast hands don’t seem to explain it fully. It’s a miracle.
I suppose an option is to go over the wicket and stack the leg side field, pitch it on leg stump and see what happens. Nothing else has worked so might as well do bodyline.
The Bogan Bradman, indeed.
The 2 best cricketers in thw word currently and both are on track to finish as GOAT tier cricketers.
Head is headmaster of hyped Pant's cricket school.... Travis, my friend, show who you are.... Boxing day match will be fun with Kohli still protecting his 20th wicket as per his practice sessions
Head, Bumrah & Cummins have been the best all format cricketers in the past 2 years.
Bumrah has been the best all format cricketer since 2018
Over the wicket against Travis Head is the best because you also get the natural angle and more ways to dismiss him. I think bumrah is bowling around the wicket because of naveen ul haq, two times naveen got head by bowling around the wicket but again the problem there is head is a opener in white ball cricket and the swing generated in indian and carribean conditions are different from australian conditions.

The reason Travis scores against bumrah is he comes when the ball gets old and don't do much .if head faces bumrah with new ball then I don't think he can score
He can and he did so in the t20 wc..and wc final too.And OBV the ball does go past the bat 1-2 times with a new ball and a decent bowler
Wc final mai toh open hi Kiya tha aur bumrah ko chauke bhi mare the
