India National Cricket Team players Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant have been lifting the team amid the long tiring day in the ongoing third Test against Australia National Cricket Team. The match between the two teams is taking place at the Gabba in Brisbane.
India National Cricket Team had a tough day with the ball in the ongoing game. They started the day pretty well as Jasprit Bumrah picked two wickets and it seemed that the hosts would restrict the run flow. However, that wasn't the case as Travis Head, along with Steve Smith, took the game away from the Rohit Sharma-led side.
Travis Head, in particular, was the man behind the carnage as he batted in an aggressive fashion and made a mockery of the India National Cricket Team bowlers. The batter showed no mercy against Ravindra Jadeja as he hit him all over the park.

With Travis Head going great guns, Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant came up with the plan for Ravindra Jadeja. The duo was seen strategizing with the all-rounder as they attempted to outsmart the Australia National Cricket Team batter, who was going great guns.
Virat Kohli came running to Ravindra Jadeja as the batter told him to bowl fast with Travis Head attempting to cut the ball. Kohli told Jadeja to keep it out and fast as the batter might flash hard, and the ball might take the edge and go to Rohit Sharma, who was in the slips.
Rishabh Pant acknowledged what Virat Kohli said as Ravindra Jadeja bowled to the plan. Virat Kohli was heard saying: "Mai jaanta hu backfoot se maarta hai. Toh Rohit ke hath mai chala jayega, yaha se jaane do, edge bhi lag skta hai. Zor se daal, cut marega hath mai jayegi."

The plan, however, didn't pay off as Travis Head continued his carnage on the India National Cricket Team bowlers. The Australia National Cricket Team slammed a brutal century, with most of his runs (44) in the innings coming against Ravindra Jadeja.
Travis Head slammed his second consecutive century in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 as the Australia National Cricket Team hammered over 400 runs on Day 2 of the game. With the way he batted, Indian bowlers surely don't seem to have any answers to his carnage.
Travis Head ended with an inning of 152 runs off 160 balls. He slammed 18 boundaries in his innings. Along with him, Steve Smith also played an innings of 101 runs. They would now be hoping to add as many runs as possible and then put pressure on the India National Cricket Team with the ball.
