Travis Head has proven to be a nightmare for Team India but Virat Kohli and pacer Mohammed Siraj devised the perfect plan to get him out in the second innings of the third Test in Brisbane.

Sunil Gavaskar Fumes At Mohammed Siraj's 'Risky' Act, Questions His 'Cricketing Awareness'

Legendary Indian cricket team skipper Sunil Gavaskar was left fuming with Mohammed Siraj after a mix-up with Ravindra Jadeja during Day 4 of the third Test match against Australia in Brisbane on Tuesday. Siraj walked out to bat at No. 9 for India after the dismissal of Nitish Kumar Reddy with India still quite a bit away from avoiding follow-on. In the 62nd over, Jadeja took a single off the fourth ball and it seemed like Siraj will play out the next two balls. However, Siraj took a single off the next ball but not before a massive mix-up between the batters. A direct hit would have resulted in a catastrophe but it was wide and they were able to complete the run. However, Jadeja was not pleased with what happened and Gavaskar lashed out in disbelief and questioned Siraj's actions in such an intense situation.

One of the highlights of Day 2 of the third Test between India and Australia was the 'bail-switching' moment between India pacer Mohammed Siraj and Australia batter Marnus Labuschagne. In an act of superstition, Siraj walked over to Labuschagne's stumps and switched the position of the bails. As Siraj turned back, Labuschagne himself switched the bails back to the original position. It didn't work out for him, as he got dismissed moments later off the bowling of Nitish Reddy.
