Travis Head Injury: Travis Head has been in aggressive form during the three Test matches of the Border Gavaskar Trophy. He has proven to be the best batsman in this series. By scoring two centuries, he has dominated the bowlers. He is the highest run-scorer in this series with 409 runs. However, due to a back injury, his participation in the upcoming match is doubtful.
Australia team captain Pat Cummins said in the press conference after the match that his team is very strong. Travis Head is likely to recover. Travis Head’s potential absence due to injury would be a significant setback. As his replacement, three other players can get a place in the team for the fourth Test.
Sam Constas
The 19-year-old Australian player has performed brilliantly in his short cricket career. He was also in line to open for Australia before the start of BGT. In 11 first-class matches, he has scored two centuries and three half-centuries. His average is 42.23.
In the absence of Travis Head, he can be the first choice in his place. This right-handed batsman had scored a century against the Indian bowlers during practice in the pink ball match.
Matt Renshaw
Matt Renshaw has played in the Test Match for Australia and is constantly showing his flair in domestic cricket. He has scored 22 centuries in first class. Recently he has also scored a century in List A games. He is currently in excellent form. Including him in the team can be a good decision.
Beau Webster
This all-rounder player was included in the Australian team as a cover for Mitchell Marsh before the third Test. He can be a great option in place of Travis Head. Webster’s average in first-class cricket has been 37.83. During this time, he completed 24 half-centuries and 12 centuries. This all-rounder also has 148 wickets to his name. This player can perform well for the team with both ball and bat.
During his last first-class match, Webster scored 110 runs, out of which 61 runs came in the first innings. Along with this, he also took five wickets. This player is an excellent option to reduce the workload of Australian bowlers.
