Travis Head dominated peak bumrah on some of the extreme pitches of Aus, dominated peak rabada on a unplayable gabba pitch (2022) , and dominated Peak robinson on a green mamba (hobart) .
I don't think any other player can dominate opposition best blowers on such extreme pitches.

I think in the modern era, no batter is better than Travis Head against pace bowling.

Root scored three hundreds against the same Bumrah on extremely pace friendly wickets in 2021 btw

Anyway, Lara is better. Head is probably better against HTD fast bowling but Lara is simply on a different level against medium pacers and vertical movement.
