Travis Head will play at the ‘G.’ The dangerous southpaw who has scored back-to-back hundreds in Adelaide and Brisbane is ready to torment his favourite opposition, the India cricket team, in Melbourne. Reports had claimed that Head had picked up a quad injury. Although Australian management refuted the claims, they did name two vice-captains, Steve Smith and Head, for the Boxing Day Test.
Travis Head “fully fit” for Boxing Day Test
Head himself had said he was pretty certain to play at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, and now his captain, Pat Cummins, on the eve of the Australia vs. India 4th Test, says the middle-order batter is fit. Head had an optional Christmas Day training session and was cleared by the medical team on December 25 to play in the penultimate match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

Has he got some things to work through? Yeah, he has, so that’s what you would have seen. There’s no concern at the moment … I think he looked good with the bat in hand, so obviously his skills are in good order,” McDonald had said.
