Former Australia opener Matthew Hayden has advised India to bat first in the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against Australia, starting on December 14, even if the conditions on offer at the Gabba in Brisbane are challenging.

Asked About Mohammed Siraj's 'Liar' Accusation On Travis Head, Pat Cummins's Strong Response

Following the win against India at home in Adelaide Oval on Sunday, Australia skipper Pat Cummins shared his thoughts on the verbal spat between left-hand batter Travis Head and Mohammed Siraj during the day-night (pink-ball) Test match. Adding an element of drama and emotion to the hotly-contested Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Siraj aggressively sent off Head after cleaning him up following a counter-attacking century that severely depleted Indian bowlers and the team's chances of winning. As Siraj aggressively gestured to the Aussie suggesting it was time for him to take a walk back to the pavillion, Head also returned back the favour with some words. Siraj was heavily booed by the Australian crowd following Head's dismissal.
