Travis Head on the hottest Indian cricketer

Before the beginning of the Test series, Head chose the hottest Indian cricketer. While he also got the option of Shubman Gill from the interviewers, Head chose the Indian captain Rohit Sharma. The 30-year-old Aussie cricketer feels that Rohit is attractive physically as well as in cricket skills. 

Head said on 7Cricket, "I don't think he's that good-looking. Potentially [he's got some work to do]. I think there's been hotter. I like Rohit's work and I am happy with the Dad setup, I think he's got the most style out of all of them. He stands at the top, takes them on, double stepping blokes in the powerplay. Both [physical attractiveness and cricketing skills].

"I think people will [find him attractive]. Yeah, I just like the way he gets about it, Yeah, around the sheds. I am happy with it, I am happy with his setup. Jasprit, got some work to do. Maybe, after the Test matches [you pass that on]."

"So Rohit plays a pull shot and you're thinking ... 'that's a good looking man.'"
