Travis Head Wins Allan Border Medal After Stellar Multi-Format Year

The Australian batter reflects on his journey from early career struggles to becoming a key player across all formats.

Travis Head secured the 2025 Allan Border Medal after scoring 1,427 runs across formats in the past year, including four centuries.
Head's resurgence began in 2021 after a disappointing stint with Sussex and a drop from Australia's central contract list, prompting a shift to a more instinctive batting style.
Since his return, Head has become a pivotal player for Australia, amassing 2,525 Test runs at an average of 45.09 and a strike rate of 81.32, with seven centuries.
Head's standout performances include title-winning centuries in the ICC World Test Championship and Cricket World Cup finals against India.
Annabel Sutherland also received top honors at the Australian Cricket Awards, winning the Belinda Clark Medal for her contributions to the women's game.
