Kohli was hardly 20 meters away from the ball but couldn't stop due to the power that Head applied to it. While Head had hit the ball hard enough to clear Kohli, the field placement didn't quite sit well with Ravi Shastri.
“When you see the field set, that can cost you big time. I mentioned some time ago that the idea might be to contain and see if a wicket comes, but you are not going to contain Australia setting this field. With these two players playing the way they are, and Head in particular, looking to get a boundary every over," Ravi Shastri said.
Travis Head scores a brisk hundred
Travis Head scored runs at a brisk pace from the moment he arrived at the crease. He continued his good form and made sure to put Australia ahead in the game. The left-hander arrived when Australia were in a spot of bother at 75-3 at one stage.
Michael Vaughan not happy with India's plans
Along with Ravi Shastri, former England captain Michael Vaughan was also perplexed with India's plans and lashed out at Rohit Sharma for not sticking to a particular tactic for long enough.
Meanwhile, Australia have surged ahead in the Test match after scoring 445 in the first innings. While Indian bowlers were disappointing, Jasprit Bumrah picked up a magnificent six-wicket haul in a lone shining performance for the visitors.
In reply, India were rocked early by the Australian fast bowlers, who used the new ball exceptionally well. India were 48-4 before rain played spoilsport on the third day with KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma at the crease. KL Rahul is batting on 30 while Rohit Sharma is yet to open his account.
