Head and Duckett have been on opposing sides in the recent Ashes campaigns.
Australian batter Travis Head has revealed that he made contact to English counterpart Ben Duckett after a online footage surfaced purportedly showing the player in a inebriated state before the Melbourne Test.
Reports indicated that members of the squad were drinking excessively during a break in the coastal resort of Noosa between the second and third Tests.
One unverified video sparked increased attention on the squad and on Duckett in particular.
"I have a good relationship with Ducky and contacted him to see if he was going alright," said Head.
"We are all still people. What you do in your own time is your concern.
"I understand we live a very public life and certain individuals are more visible than others.
"At the end of the day, it is a bit stiff but I don't believe there is any real issue."
Context of the Incident
England's four nights in Noosa followed they had gone 2-0 down in the Ashes series following losses in Perth and Brisbane.
Multiple media outlets stated that some players were drinking for a significant portion of their time on the coastal break, in addition to on two earlier days in Brisbane.
Though they gave an improved performance in the following Test, they lost in Adelaide to surrender the series to Australia.
Head's Take
Commenting after the visiting team's win in the Melbourne Test, Head added: "I was jealous.
"Everyone has made a bigger deal than it warranted.
"Our teams have done the very same on previous tours. I don't have an problem with it."
