Travis Head wins back-to-back Allan Border Medal, joins elite list

Travis Head plays cricket for Australia and hits the ball very hard.

Every year, Australia gives a special prize to its best men's cricketer.

It is called the Allan Border Medal, named after a famous player.

Travis won this prize last year, and now he has won it again.

That makes him one of only five players ever to win it two times in a row.

He got more votes than his teammates Alex Carey and Mitchell Starc.

Travis scored big runs in the Ashes series against England, like 123 in Perth and 170 in Adelaide.

He also scored 142 runs in a one-day game against South Africa.

Other players got prizes too, like Mitchell Starc for Test cricket and Annabel Sutherland for being the best woman cricketer.

Old champion Allan Border was in the room to hand Travis the medal, which made the moment extra special.
