Travis Head had COVID-19, Vettori reveals ahead of LSG v SRH IPL 2025 match
'Travis is coming in tomorrow morning. He was delayed. He actually had COVID, so he couldn't travel. He'll get in tomorrow morning and we'll assess how he is after that,' Vettori told reporters ahead of the game here on Sunday.
The Aussie opener has had an underwhelming season so far, managing just 281 runs so far.
Already out of contention for the IPL 2025 playoffs, SRH has three matches left to play this season. The side is placed eighth on the points table after 11 matches.
The ongoing edition of the IPL resumed on May 17, over a week after it was suspended due to heightened military tensions between India and Pakistan.

Watch: Amidst India's Lower-Order Batting Collapses, Mohammed Shami's Insta Video Creates A Stir
Last Updated: Mohammed Shami has been grinding it out in the nets after missing the cut for India's ongoing England tour. In the space of 34 deliveries, India's lower order was dismantled on the second morning of the Oval Test against England in London. India lost their final four wickets for the addition of just 6 runs after beginning the day's play at 218/6 in their first innings. And not the first time that India's tail has failed to wag unlike that of England which has frustrated the visitors on several occasions in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. India's tour started with excellent contributions from their top-order batters at Headingley – the venue of the 1st Test. However, their listless lower-order show played a major role in them losing the contest by five-wicket. Captain Shubman Gill cited it as one of the reasons why the team lost a match in which they appeared in control. 'I think it was a brilliant Test match. We had our chances, we dropped catches and our lower-order didn't contribute enough, but I'm proud of the team and overall, a good effort," Gill had said. Amidst the concerns over India's lower order batting, Mohammed Shami has shared a clip of him polishing his batting in the nets far away from the India limelight. Shami, who has been missing in action since the IPL 2025 was snubbed for the England tour with the team management not satisfied that he has built up the workload necessary for Test cricket. Shami had stitched a famous 10th-wicket partnership with Jasprit Bumrah during the Lord's Test between India and England in August 2021 that helped the tourists storm to a 151-run win. India were 209/9 when Shami and Bumrah got together. The duo then stitched an unbroken partnership of 89 runs with India declaring at 298/9 and setting England 272 to win. Shami's Fitness Woes Veteran fast bowler Shami had made his long-awaited international return earlier this year during a home white-ball series against England. After missing nearly 15 months of international cricket, he made his comeback in England T20Is and also featured in the ODI series that followed. He was also picked in India's squad for the Champions Trophy and then represented Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2025. However, he wasn't picked for the England Tests. 'He (Shami) has been trying to get fit for the Test series. I don't think he is fit enough to play five Tests at the moment." I don't think his fitness is where it needs to be. It's just the medical guys who have told us that he has been ruled out of the series," Agarkar had said. Get latest Cricket news, live score and match results on News18.

Shami joins East Zone for Duleep Trophy 2025; Ishan Kishan named captain
Veteran pacer Mohammed Shami has been drafted into the East Zone squad for the 2025-26 Duleep Trophy, marking a notable return to red-ball cricket. The seasoned pacer, who last played a first-class match in November 2024 for Bengal, will bring a heap of experience to a squad that blends youth and established domestic talent. Leading the team will be Ishan Kishan, currently enjoying a purple patch in England's County Championship. Kishan has been handed the captaincy of a 15-member unit set to open the domestic season with a clash against North Zone at the Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru on August 28. Test batter Abhimanyu Easwaran who will return from England without feturing in any of the five Tests of Anderson Tendulkar Trophy 2025 has been named vice-captain of the squad, which features promising performers from across the zone. Shami returns to red-ball setup Shami, 34, was last seen in competitive action during IPL 2025, where he turned out for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Despite a modest showing — six wickets in nine matches — his experience remains invaluable. With his last first-class appearance dating back to the 2024 Ranji Trophy and no international red-ball outing since the World Test Championship final in 2023, his inclusion signals East Zone's intent to bolster their bowling attack with seasoned pace. Kishan's county form rewarded Ishan Kishan's appointment as captain highlights his growing stature. The wicketkeeper-batter has impressed with two gritty half-centuries for Nottinghamshire in Division One of the County Championship. Though not known primarily for red-ball prowess, Kishan's leadership credentials and current form tipped the scales in his favour. Zonal selectors see him as a 'dynamic influence' capable of galvanising a young squad. Youth and experience The squad features key performers such as Akash Deep, Mukesh Kumar and Riyan Parag. Young talents like Virat Singh and Sharandeep Singh — Jharkhand's top Ranji run-scorers — also earn deserved places. Spinner Manishi, who claimed 22 wickets last season, strengthens the bowling unit. One of the more exciting names among the standbys is 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who made headlines with a record-breaking century for India U-19 in England. The selectors hinted at keeping 'an eye on long-term prospects' by naming the prodigy as a standby. Surprise omission Interestingly, there was no spot for Sudip Chatterjee, Bengal's leading scorer from last Ranji season. His teammate Sudip Kumar Gharami, the second-highest, finds himself among the reserves, reflecting a forward-looking selection strategy focused on versatility and form. East Zone full squad for Duleep Trophy 2025: Ishan Kishan (capt), Abhimanyu Easwaran (vc), Sandeep Patnaik, Virat Singh, Denish Das, Sridam Paul, Sharandeep Singh, Kumar Kushagra, Riyan Parag, Utkarsh Singh, Manishi, Suraj Sindhu Jaiswal, Mukesh Kumar, Akash Deep, Mohammed Shami Standbys: Mukhtar Hussain, Aasirwad Swain, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Swastik Samal, Sudip Kumar Gharami, Rahul Singh Duleep Trophy returns to old format The 2025-26 season marks the return of the traditional zonal format for the Duleep Trophy after a one-year experiment with India A, B, C and D teams. The tournament's reversion to its roots allows regional talent to shine and brings familiar rivalries back to the fore.
