Expressing his focus on mental freshness and continuous improvement, Head emphasized the significance of maintaining readiness for the upcoming global event. “With the World Cup coming around the corner and, hopefully, being involved in that squad and batting at the top of the order…it gives me good preparation here in the IPL to try and get some runs and have a little bit of form going into the World Cup,” he added.
Reflecting on his IPL journey, Head acknowledged his growth and maturity over the years. “It was nice to get some runs in the first game,” he stated. “It’s been a long time between IPLs for me, seven years, but I’ve learned a lot over that time and am a lot more mature now.”
