On Day 3, rather the final day of the pink ball Test at Adelaide, Mohammad Siraj looked to have a friendly chat with Travis Head while batting. Earlier, Siraj engaged in banter with Travis Head on day 2, while he dismissed Head on 140. Exchange of cuss words and finally getting booed by the Australian fans, Siraj was so charged up that his teammates had to calm him down. Even after the day's match, Head was seen defending his mockery while leaving and has expressed frustration about Siraj's reaction. He clarified that, he has "mockingly" said "well bowled" to Siraj, which the later denied next day, saying nothing such happened.

He clarified that Siraj loves "battle," and that helps him. As long as it is not breaching the courtesy, he has no issue with Siraj. In the conference, he said, "Yeah, he likes to get into the battle. It gives him success. As the captain, it's my job to back that aggression. Obviously, there's a fine line-we don't want to cross anything that disrespects the game. But having a word or two with the opposition is not a bad thing. He likes it, and it gets him going. In the past, we've seen many cricketers thrive in such battles, and Siraj is definitely one of them." He further added, "Our players are used to performing in big crowds. When things go well, they support; when things don't, they don't-that happens everywhere. Siraj knows what he needs to do for the team. His job is to take wickets, and he will do everything required to achieve that. External factors don't matter to him. The team is mature enough to keep such distractions out and focus on the game."
