India and Australia are facing off in the first semi-final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 in Dubai, with Indian fans eagerly awaiting the dismissal of Australian left-hander Travis Head.
Head started off slowly, but after three overs, the southpaw shifted gears and attacked the Indian bowlers. From just 1 run off 9 balls, he quickly raced to 39 off 32.
That’s when India’s mystery spinner, Varun Chakravarthy, came into the attack. In an aggressive mood, Head went for a big shot on the first delivery of Varun’s spell but mistimed it, sending the ball straight into the hands of Shubman Gill.
The prized wicket of Travis Head sparked immediate joy among Indian fans. The Indian players were visibly thrilled, but what really stood out was Virat Kohli’s fiery send-off.
