Destructive Travis Head, an Australian batter, and his wife, Jessica Davies, are the proud parents of their second child, a boy they have named Harrison George Head. Jessica announced the news on her Instagram account, where she also posted some cute photos of the baby.

Jessica gave birth to their daughter, Mila Paige Head, who is now two years old, in September 2022, marking the couple’s first parenthood. Travis and Jessica were married in a small ceremony in Adelaide on April 15, 2023, following their engagement in March 2021.

Travis Head’s record against India in Test matches

Head took a brief respite from the hectic cricket schedule in Australia to attend his wife’s second child’s birth. He chose not to participate in the current three-match ODI series against Pakistan at home, but he is predicted to make a comeback during the much awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024–25, which starts on November 22 with the opening Test at the Optus Stadium in Perth.

This season, Head has dominated the game’s two white-ball formats, but he hasn’t performed up to par in the Test setting. Over eight innings, the southpaw’s average is a pitiful 24.75. Nonetheless, he has a strong record against India in the red-ball format, and in the upcoming months, he can try to improve his batting performance against the team captained by Rohit Sharma.

Head has scored 715 runs at an average of 42.0 in 18 innings against India in the game’s longest format. Against the Asian heavyweights, the 30-year-old has amassed three half-centuries and one tonne.
