Milestones galore as Marnus, Head take full control | Australia v West Indies 2022-23

It was a day of milestones for Australia in Adelaide, with Usman Khawaja passing 1000 runs for the calendar year, Marnus Labuschagne scoring a third-straight century, and local boy Travis Head reaching three figures in front of an adoring home crowd

Travis Head and Uzzie Khawaja are silent heroes. All the talk of Warner, Smith and Labuschagne, everyone has forgotten about Uzzie and Trav (especially the Windies, putting all their effort into Labuschagne and Smith in particular). Trav was the man of the Ashes last summer, and Uzzie is ranked 7th in the world. Can’t forget about these boys! Brilliant!! ❤

Travis Head is left handed ABD and he is very underrated. His consistency since Ashes is really worth for team. Hope it continues.

[@vasudevjoshi0903]

Dude, Travis Head is a batting all-rounder. He bowls pretty well, but his batting surely surpasses everything!

You can’t be the best middle order batsman in the world if you’re only good at home, he’s undoubtedly elite in Australian conditions, the best middle order batsman in the world currently is probably Daryl Mitchell or Jonny Bairstow, granted Mitchell has a small sample size, it’s probably Bairstow

Superb batting display 👏

[@zafarhussain4848]

Sami, yes it has been a very good batting display but the West Indies pace attack and the spin on display has been weak. In the first test they had least Roach and Jaden, but this test there bowling stick is very limited, but still credit to Australia to take advantage of the situation. Travis Head is playing for some time in Australia since the last series against England like the English middle order as far as strike rate is concerned. But he failed in Pakistan and come the Indian series he will have to learn how to play spinners. Also Warner will have to step up or Australia will have a hard time on real turning tracks.

[@manavkhanna6470]

Their bowlers are injured.

[@niravrasengupta7374]

@@manavkhanna6470 That is not an excuse. It is west indies cricket board that is at fault. They have zero interest on the west indies test cricket team. Their pitches are awful in west indies then they were when in the 90's west indies produced very good bowlers who are quick and tall. West Indies Cricket Board is engaged in a conflict with players and there is no unity around producing stars for international cricket.

[@niravrasengupta7374]

Not only are the bowlers injured, but fast bowling in general is in decline. Now bowlers are bowling useless line and length which batsman can easily pounce on. There is no venom and fight today from west indies bowlers.
