Travis Head’s first reaction after Virat Kohli handshake controversy goes viral ...Middle East

A massive controversy erupted during the game between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The legendary Indian batter Virat Kohli turned down a customary handshake from Travis Head after the players from each side lined up for a handshake row after the game.

Following that incident when Virat Kohli visibly denied Head a handshake, a major controversy erupted and took centre stage before the two teams set their playoff campaign in swing. However, Travis Head focused on totally different things.

He had captioned the post, writing, "Keep the body guessing." This catchy phrase is a gym term that advocates keeping on trying something new every time so that the body doesn't get used to a normal routine and continues the spree of improvement.

What led to the Virat-Head no handshake controversy? Massive updates surface after SRH-RCB clash

After the Travis Head controversy with Virat Kohli in a denial of a handshake, several theories have been built around the reason for the massive controversy, though nothing has been confirmed by either party.

Head, who featured mostly as an impact player, has been substituted on the majority of the occasions, but not on this occasion. Probably that was what Kohli wanted to say. "Now that you are not going to be substituted, you might as well bowl."
