[WATCH]- Travis Head And Glenn Maxwell Involved In Heated Clash During SRH vs PBKS IPL 2025 Match

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s (SRH) explosive opener, Travis Head, was involved in a heated verbal exchange with Punjab Kings (PBKS) all-rounders Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis during the IPL 2025 match on Saturday at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. Despite frequently playing together for Australia, tensions flared at a critical moment in the game.

The incident took place in the ninth over of the second innings, bowled by Maxwell. After Head drove the ball back to him on the second-last delivery, Maxwell attempted a throw at the stumps. Head appeared displeased with the throw and had a conversation with Maxwell after the over. Stoinis stepped in to diffuse the situation and calm things down.

Head played a key role in helping the Orange Army successfully chase down 246, securing an eight-wicket victory with over an over to spare, making it the second-highest run chase in IPL history. The southpaw began the tournament with a fiery 67 against Rajasthan Royals, followed by 47 and 22 against Lucknow Super Giants and Delhi Capitals, respectively.

After being dismissed for single-digit scores against Gujarat Titans and Kolkata Knight Riders, Head bounced back with a blistering 66 off 37 balls on Saturday, forming a 171-run opening partnership with Abhishek Sharma.

“We believed it was still achievable”- Travis Head

In an interview with the host broadcaster after ending SRH’s four-match losing streak, Travis Head mentioned that he and Abhishek complement each other perfectly, which is proving highly beneficial for the franchise. He added:

“Not bad. Nice to get on the winner’s list. We needed it. We had our work cut out at halfway stage. We wanted to give ourselves a chance. I was a bit patient in the first two overs. Abhi got off to a flier. Nice to get back into the rhythm. We just wanted to make sure to do the small things right like we did last year.”

“We complement each other really well. We got a bit lucky as well, which was nice. This particular wicket has had a lot of high scores. No. 2 seems to have a lot of high scores. We knew it was not out of reach.”
