Head Hits Back at Hayden Over Australia Test Squad Criticism

Travis Head has dismissed Matthew Hayden's claim that Australia's Test squad for South Africa is a "pile of mediocrity," saying former players are paid to criticise. Hayden's remark followed Nic Maddinson's recall after 10 years, covering injuries to Josh Inglis and Cameron Green. Australia face South Africa in Durban from Friday, with both chasing a World Test Championship final spot.
