Delhi: Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) received a major setback before the match against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Monday. Team’s star batsman Travis Head will not participate in this important match. The team’s head coach Daniel Vettori told a press conference on Sunday that the return of the head has been delayed as he had a corona infection.

Head will reach India on Monday morning

Vitori told that the head will now reach India on Monday morning, after which the medical staff of the team will investigate them and further decisions will be taken. The coach did not clarify when and where the Travis Head had to Kovid, but this was the main reason for his visit.

Australia returned due to tension

Travis Head and SRH captain Pat Cummins returned to Australia in the middle. At that time, the IPL was temporarily postponed due to security reasons in view of the increasing tension between India and Pakistan. After this, many types of speculations were being made about his return, as both the players are also busy in the preparations for the World Test Championship final to be held in June.

Head and Cummins can play in the remaining matches

Although now Sunrisers Hyderabad’s team is out of the playoff race, the team management has confirmed that both the head and cummen will join the team for the final matches. SRH now has 3 more matches in the season – against Lucknow, Bengaluru and Kolkata. The last match of the team is on 25 May, so that both the players will get enough time to prepare for the Test final.

Travis Head performed faded

Travis Head, who was seen in excellent form in IPL 2024, failed to repeat the performance in this season. Last year, he scored 567 runs in 15 matches and was one of the most influential players for SRH. But in 2025, so far he has scored only 281 runs in 11 matches, which has made his form a matter of concern.
