3rd Test: 'When He Is Batting Well, I Go Unnoticed', Says Head On His Partnership With Smith

After Jasprit Bumrah: Travis Head and Steve Smith took the fight to the Indian bowling attack on Day 2 of the third Test match at The Gabba, with a 241-run partnership for the fourth wicket giving Australia the advantage in the game.

After Jasprit Bumrah and Nitish Kumar Reddy combined for three wickets in the opening session, Head and Smith helped Australia reach a total of 405/7 at Stumps. The duo definitely enjoy batting against India, with their highest partnership against the nation being the 2023 World Test Championship final when they stitched a 285 run-stand to hand India their second consecutive defeat at the stage.

After his 152-run contribution to the scoreboard, Head reflected on how batting with Smith gives him more freedom to bat. "I've always enjoyed that about Steve. I've felt that when he's in the zone and batting well, I go unnoticed. I thought he was moving really well. I didn't feel I would lose my partner at the other end, so that gives me some (freedom) too.
