Currently, there are many bilateral series being played in the cricket world. The West Indies team is playing a Test series in Australia. On the other hand, a 5-match Test series between India and England is scheduled to be played from January 25. In the midst of all this, Corona has come knocking again. This star player has proven to be Corona positive. It seems questionable whether this player will play in the upcoming friendly.
This player was infected with Corona
The Australian team appears to be in for a major blow ahead of the second Test match against the West Indies starting January 25 in Brisbane. In fact, the Kangaroo team's top batsman, Travis Head, is affected by Corona. According to media reports, Travis Head had the Covid test done after feeling unwell after the Adelaide Test, after which he was found positive.
One of Australia's greatest match winners
According to media reports, Travis Head will follow quarantine rules after he was found to be infected with Corona. However, the team management will wait until Travis Head is healthy and can take part in training sessions. If Travis Head misses the Brisbane Test, it could be a huge blow to the team as he made a century in Adelaide and was also named player of the match. Travis Head played an innings of 119 runs in Adelaide.
Squads of both teams
Australian test team: Pat Cummins (captain), Scott Boland, Alex Carey, Cameron Green, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Marsh, Matthew Renshaw, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc.
West Indies Test team: Kraigg Brathwaite (captain), Alzarri Joseph (vice-captain), Tangerine Chanderpaul, Kirk McKenzie, Alick Athanase, Kvam Hodge, Justin Greaves, Joshua Da Silva, Akeem Jordan, Gudakesh Moti, Kemar Roach, Kevin Sinclair, Tevin Imlach, Shamar Joseph, Zachary McCaskey.
