Hard to fathom why Travis Head is not playing in the first test for Australia v India. His recent form and being ranked number 4 Test batter in the world would suggest he least deserved the first opportunity in India

Ridiculous absolute joke
They better win otherwise questions are already been asked .
S Waugh someone you don’t get offside.
I disagree with you Paul….Travis head might be good against West Indies/Pakistan etc in Aus but against india especially in india, Handscomb is a much better bat and can play spin much better
Head averages 45 in Test Cricket and had a great summer.
Handscomb - 38 overall and only 29 in India
Renshaw - 33 overall and only 28 in India
It's not as if they've selected 2 batters who have demonstrably performed better. Head should've been given first go.
Head also provides the added benefit of tidy off spin bowling
