Chappell also warned pacer Mohammed Siraj about needling someone like Travis Head. Chapell wrote that the India pacer learnt it the hard way that an ultra-aggressive celebration was not the way to go against someone like Travis Head.
“On the individual side, the ultra-aggressive Travis Head proved that India have not found an answer to his extravagant shot-making. His two-sided confrontation with Mohammed Siraj showed that a theatrical (and expensive) send-off is not the answer to derailing Head, especially when he’s already made 140,” Chappell wrote.
“India need to find a way to seriously challenge Head with appropriate field placings that are matched by some sensibly aggressive bowling. At the moment Head is dominating, and in this mood he’s capable of quickly putting Australia in a position of strength with his middle-order pyrotechnics,” he further added.
