Australia have scored a record score in the powerplay as they registered the highest total of 113 in the powerplay. Fans have gone crazy over Headโs innings though for some it seemed very likely to see him perform in this fashion.
Some fans have said, โIs their anything blue in Scotland kitโ. This statement seems to be mocking Indiaโs loss against Australia in the final of which Travis Head was the main reason.

While some congratulated the World no.1 T20I batter for his tunning innings.

Australia bowled first in the first match that against Scotland, which began Australiaโs European summer.
The Scottish never seemed to go well, as wickets kept falling at regular intervals. They were restricted to a minor 154/9 with Sean Abbott picking 3 wickets for his team, emerging as the pick of the bowlers.
