Aus vs NZ: Travis Head delighted with patient MCG ton

The Hindu  

Travis Head believes his century against New Zealand shows he has matured as a Test batsman and he has hailed Australia captain Tim Paine for his assistance. Middle-order batsman Head, who hit a Test century against Sri Lanka earlier in the year, scored 56 in his first innings in the Perth Test, though only managed five in his second stint at the crease, and was publicly criticised by former Australia captain Ricky Ponting. "I've been really happy with how I've been starting innings over the last few months, especially this season, so it was about making sure I go on," Head told reporters. "Definitely took a lot of pressure off me, I don't think I changed the way I went about it, especially to Wagner, Tim took him on and played exceptionally well and was very positive, plays the pull and hook shots extremely well.
