Most enjoyable thing about India is how friendly everyone is: Travis Head

Travis Head broke several Indian hearts with his match-winning knock in the World Cup 2023 final as Australia won the title defeating India at home. The same Indians received the Aussie wholeheartedly when he came all guns blazing for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2024.

Having spent most of his time in India recently, Head opened up on the culture of India after he played his first Major League Cricket. Behind India was the dominant attendance of the Indian crowd during the World Cup 2023 final and the same spectators were backing Head, on and off the field, when he wore an orange jersey for SRH and scored at a strike rate of around 200.

"The most enjoyable thing about India is how friendly everyone is, how well we get looked after, the hotels we stay in. There are some amazing places to eat and see, and there's a couple of really good golf courses to get away. We're very fortunate when we're there to be very well looked after,” said Head as quoted by Sports Boom.

“Obviously, the crowds and the venues that we play are outstanding as well, but there's a fair due away from the game as well if we want to or just chill. It's always a great experience being in India,” he added.
