Watch: Travis Head hilariously swings his bat in BBL

Travis Head has been in superb form for the Adelaide Strikers in the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL). Three half-centuries at the top of the order saw Adelaide home comfortably at the Gabba against the home team Brisbane Heat in match number 23. One of these was from the big bat of Head who has become one of the most popular names Down Under owing to his breathtaking knocks.

At the Gabba, Head made the most of a life he got when he was on 4. A top-edged slog-sweep off Samuel Badree nearly landed in the hands of the point fielder who made a valiant effort but couldn’t quite hold on. He went on to punish the opposition bowlers from here on and played yet another scintillating knock. A moment during this included him swinging his bat wildly, though, not at the ball.

The bowler having stopped short of delivering the ball, the umpire was in action signaling a dead ball as per the laws of the game. Head, though, saw the lighter side of it and stepped down the ground sand smashed something in the air. It could have been a moth or something that he saw in the air that commanded his attention.

With 59 needed from 36, Head did what he does best. Bowler Andrew Fekete continued having a miserable day as the dashing left-hander smacked him for 3 sixes and in the 15th over to tilt the game in Adelaide’s favour. His 25-ball 50 gave top his team to the top of the BBL table and also dented the home side’s hopes of staying alive in the competition.
