Travis Head has the major luck factor which every modern day cricketer is aching for, it doesn't mean that he doesn't posses any talent or whatsoever he is a great typical left hand batsman who can change the course of the game with his aggressivs batting. The luck factor is that if that person goes out early minimum the damage is but if he survives in any of instances that means he will take away the game completely from your side.
That type of power possesses Travis Head it's natural for an opener that requires some balls to settle down if he has caught or bowled in that period you have done some damage otherwise the time is gone same thing happened in this game.
Travis Head Attracts The Luck Factor
The Champions Trophy semi-final began with a bang when Australian captain Steve Smith won the toss and chose to bat first avoiding the risk of chasing on a spin-friendly track. Australian openers Cooper Connolly and Travis Head started the proceedings and it was Shami who was with the new ball. It was the third ball of the innings when Travis Head tried to duck the ball which went straight back to Shami as a reflection catch but within the follow-through, he dropped the catch and it, was complete silence in the stadium.

It was the second time Travis Head had acquired a huge advantage before that same incident happened 2 years back where Jasprit Bumrah's ball missed the bail clip by a whisker and he went on unbeaten and chased the target for Australia where India's aim of winning the third world Cup was destroyed. Even this time too he utilised the opportunity and counter-attacked by hitting fours and sixes everyone had the same intention when would be the next opportunity.

Varun Chakravarthy once again showcased his class.
Soon in the 5th over Jadeja got a chance to run out the dangerous batsman , Head tickled the ball to off side and attempted a single and the ball reached Jadeja who is considered as India's best fielders. He throwed the ball and it also missed the stumps by slight inch it was such a close call if it would have hit the stumps Head would have been walking to stands. It was two chances and now he was almost setteled.

But it was Varun Chakravarthy who came to the rescue it was the 8th over of the match and Chakravarthy came to bowl where two of his balls were dots and in his third ball Travis Head tried to the shot on the off side where the ball travelled the distance at a height not covering the distance and beneath under it was Subhman Gill who completed the catch the biggest headache for India was departed on 39 runs. Ravi Ashwin's prediction became true when he suggested that gto ive the new ball to Varun he would do the damage.
