Travis Head

It's the moments of the games where we just need to recalibrate ourselves out there in the middle and go, what is...

Pretty much everywhere, only in Australia.

Yeah, it's special.

There's a couple of good names up there.

We've always found it tough to bat here, so nice to be up the order, nice to get the hard ball, and nice to contribute again.

I said every hundred you get is going to be well cherished but I'll probably hold the couple at the start of the series when it's on the line and we have an opportunity to win an Ashes series in the first couple of tests that was the pleasing part and then I guess from a personal perspective it's nice to finish a series in the fifth test with runs again and make sure we don't take the foot off and what an amazing week we've had You certainly cemented that place opening the batting I hear that you're in charge of plans tonight as well

Starkey's probably ready to go after five test matches on the bounce and Slug will do his thing.

Maybe.

Yeah, it feels like it's going okay.

The body's still holding together and it's a great group to be a part of.

It's a lot of fun, especially when you've got Travis at the top there and in the change room.

So it's been a great group to be a part of and I'm just glad to be playing a role.

Yeah, a little bit tired.

Scotty and I are on the older side of things, but yeah, we still managed to get a job done.

So between Scotty, Ness and I, we've certainly been told we're not on the younger side of things, but to play the roles that we did, we're a bit tired and sore yesterday.

But yeah, I think the entire squad, we haven't used just 11 players.

I think it's between the players and the staff.

It's been a long series, but obviously very fruitful and enjoyable to be part of.

Yeah, glad I got a few out of the middle at the start of the series, because certainly didn't at the end.

But yeah, there's no better incentive for a bowler than to not have to bowl and stay out there with the bats.
