Despite a comeback by Indian pacers, Australia strengthened their position in ICC World Test Championship (WTC) final as they dismissed both Indian openers in the second session of the second day of Thursday after scoring 469 runs
The 29-year-old right-arm fast-medium bowler reached this milestone during India's ICC World Test Championship (WTC) final against Australia at The Oval.
Head was the star of the day, slamming the first-ever century in a WTC Final and hitting the first of his six Test tons to come outside of Australia, finishing on 146 unbeaten.
India skipper Rohit Sharma's decision of bowling first initially seemed to have paid off. However, Head and Smith's unbeaten partnership of 251 runs put the Australians in the driver's seat at the close of play on Day 1.
From the very first ball, Head looked reading the surface well, judging the movement of the Duke ball as well as picking up the bowlers' lines and lengths.
Australian batters Steve Smith and Travis Head dominated the Indian bowlers for the better part of the second session of the World Test Championship 2023 final at the Oval in London on Wednesday.
