Head’s Career-best 154 Not Out Takes Australia To Comfortable Win Over England
New Delhi: Left-handed opener Travis Head slammed a career-best 154 not out and lead Australia to a comfortable seven-wicket win over England in the ODI series opener at Trent Bridge. The win coming in Adam Zampa’s 100th ODI appearance, where he took a three-fer, also propelled Australia to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.
Asked to chase 316 for victory by England, Australia chased down the total with six overs to spare, with Head's 154 not out off 129 balls – his sixth ODI century - laced with 20 fours and five sixes - becoming the highest individual score by an Australian men’s player in England.
Marnus Labuschagne hit 77 not out off 61 balls with seven fours and two sixes, putting on a stand of 148 off just 107 balls with Head for the fourth wicket in an absolute run-fest at Nottingham.
