This player has told that he is preparing for the T20 World Cup during the IPL. This player is none other than Travis Head.

What did the head say?
Australia’s Travis Head has performed brilliantly in 2023 but he knows that maintaining this level is challenging and the first stop on this journey will be the T20 World Cup. Now he wants to strengthen his preparations for the T20 World Cup to be held in America and West Indies in June through the Indian Premier League. Head said in an interview to PTI that I have come a long way as a player. I have my own style and play the same way abroad too. Now there is pressure to play well continuously. He said that in all formats I ensure that I stick to the basics. This is my technique and blueprint.
Regarding the T20 World Cup, Travis Head said that the World Cup is now near and hopefully being in the Sunrisers team and playing at the top order will strengthen my preparation. I will be able to take this rhythm to the World Cup. Playing the entire IPL season could lead to fatigue or injury issues before the World Cup. When asked, he said that it is important that I remain mentally fresh throughout the IPL and keep working on my game. Make sure that I am fully prepared for the World Cup. I feel like I’m ready.
