Australian opener Travis Head recently opened up about the fierce India-Australia rivalry, suggesting that the Men in Blue will be desperate for revenge if the two cricketing powerhouses clash in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 final.
After Australia’s victories over India in the World Test Championship and ODI World Cup final last year, Head believes an India-Australia title decider would be incredible. The two nations have developed an intense sporting rivalry across formats in recent years. India has
a superior T20 World Cup head-to-head record against Australia, winning three out of the five games.
Head believes that Australia’s recent performances in the ICC against India still hurt their fans. He believes if both meet each other in the summit clash, the Men in Blue will come with the intention of revenge.
“It would be nice. It would be nice to be in the final. I think everyone in India would love that, especially considering what’s happened in the last two finals. So, I’m sure India wants some revenge at some point. There would be good theater around it if that were the case. Let’s hope that we’re in it, and let’s hope you’re in it, and we’ll see what happens,” Head said in an interview with Times of India.
