Travis Head Embraces Opening Role After Match-Winning Ashes Knock, Boosts SRH Confidence

Australian opener Travis Head has expressed immense satisfaction with his new role at the top of the order, a position he embraced during the recently concluded Ashes series. Head, who is a key player for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the IPL, delivered a magnificent 170 off 219 balls in the decisive third Test, helping Australia secure the series victory and retain the urn.

Head has been the standout performer of the series, emerging as the leading run-scorer with 379 runs from six innings at an average of 63.16. His aggressive yet controlled approach, highlighted by two centuries, has brought much-needed stability to Australia’s opening combination following David Warner’s retirement. This exceptional form and confidence in a high-pressure opening role will be a massive boost for SRH fans looking ahead to the next IPL season.
