Australia’s Travis Head Becomes ICC Men’s Player of the Month

The 29-year-old paid tribute to his teammates for their help in his journey over the last year.

Maxwell scored an all-time great double century against Afghanistan during the World Cup, while Shami had a brilliant run with the ball during the same tournament.

But it was Head’s 220 ODI runs during the month of November – that featured a half-century and a century – that proved the difference, with the left-hander winning his first Player of the Month award.

The 29-year-old paid tribute to his teammates for their help in his journey over the last year.

Travis Head cleaned up Heinrich Klaasen before trapping Marco Jansen lbw.

These two best knocks during November came in the most critical stage of Australia’s successful Cricket World Cup campaign.

These innings won Head the Player of the Match award in the semi-final and final of the 50-over showcase.

Head is only the second Australia Men’s player to take the award after David Warner, who won it in November 2021.

Head has shown sensational form of late. He was also instrumental in Australia winning the ICC Men’s World Test Championship final earlier this year with a brilliant 163 in the first innings against India.

He claimed the Player of the Match award in a game which his side won by 209 runs.
