On day 2 of the Adelaide Pink Ball Test, a heated exchange occurred between Travis Head and Mohammad Siraj when the later bowled him out. Siraj's aggression caught many commentators criticizing him for his aggression. Earlier, Head claimed that it was Siraj who was pumped up despite him complemanting Siraj, saying "well bowled." However, Siraj denied all claims. Prior to the start of Day 3, while giving an interview to Harbhajan Singh, Siraj made a shocking claim that nothing friendly happened from Head's side. He said, "I was enjoying bowling to him. It was a good battle because he batted really well. When a batter hits you for a six on a good ball, it feels bad. That gave me an energy. After bowling him out, I celebrated. Then he abused me. You can see on TV as well. In the start, it was my celebration. I didn't say anything to him. In the press conference, he said wrong thing. He lied. Noway he said well-bowled. We respect everyone. I always respect everyone because cricket is a gentleman's game. Travis Head's actions were wrong. I did not feel good."

Siraj did show some aggression; be it his pre-mature celebration or throwing the ball at Marnus Labuschagne, Siraj has been in his peak aggression, which looked unnecessary even to Indian commentators. Speaking about Head, he smacked a big six in the previous ball and then got bowled out to Siraj. While leaving, some words exchange happened, which looks to be some cuss word. Later, in a post-match interview, head said, "I actually jokingly said well bowled, and then he pointed me to the sheds and I had my reaction as well. I don’t want to give it too much air time. “I was surprised at the reaction in terms of situation of the game and in the lead-up. There was no confrontation leading up to it. I felt like it was probably a little bit far at the time. That’s why I’m disappointed at the reaction that I gave back. But I’m also going to stand up for myself. That’s not how I’d like to play the game." Siraj, after the dismissal was seen having a word with the umpire. The Aussie crowd booed too, to which he reacted unless Rishabh Pant went and calmed him down.
