"Scoring Quicker Now Than Adam Gilchrist": Ricky Ponting Compares Travis Head With Australia Great

After the left-hander moved the momentum of the ICC World Test Championship Final towards his side with a magnificent century on the opening day in London, Australian great Ricky Ponting is at ease comparing Travis Head to Adam Gilchrist. On an action-packed day at The Oval when Australia dominated, Head delivered his first Test century in England and the sixth of his career with a magnificent unbeaten 146* from just 156 deliveries. A compelling 251-run unbroken partnership between Travis Head (146 not out) and Steve Smith (95 not out) was the highlight of the first day of the World Test Championship Final 2023, as Australia finished at a strong 327 for three at the end of the day's play.

Ahead of the World Test Championship (WTC) final between India and Australia, several experts, including former Australia captain Ricky Ponting, had suggested that the Pat Cummins-led side are favourites to win the summit clash. Former India head coach Ravi Shastri and Pakistan legend Wasim Akram had also echoed Ponting's sentiments. To further back his claims, Ponting had suggested that the Indian players will be tired after a hectic IPL 2023 season, adding that the Australians will head into the fixture with a fresh mindset.

The Australian team on paper holds slight advantage on a bouncy Oval track but both Ravi Shastri and Ricky Ponting feel that the Indians are better prepared for the World Test Championship final beginning Wednesday with IPL game-time under their belt. Shastri, Ponting and Pakistan legend Wasim Akram all feel that the Oval track will remain fresher than it usually is as it has never hosted a Test match in June in the venue's 140-year history. Shastri, a former India head coach who guided the team to inaugural WTC final in 2021, felt that had Jasprit Bumrah been there, India would have started on even keel if not as favourites.
