Record Head knock as Australia hammer India on day two

AUSTRALIA V INDIA, day two of the second Test:

SCORE: India 180 and 5-128 versus Australia 337.

SUMMARY: Travis Head smacks the fastest century in day-night Tests, from 111 deliveries, and makes 140 from 141 ******. Australia’s bowlers turn the screws with Pat Cummins and Scott Boland taking two wickets each with India still 29 runs in arrears at stumps.

THE MOMENT: Head’s stunning knock finishes in a flashpoint when bowled by Mohammed Siraj, who gives the home-town hero a send-off and the Adelaidean responds with some choice words of his own.

THE PLAYER: Head’s eighth career ton is his third from his past four Test innings at Adelaide Oval. And it’s the second century in his past six knocks against India, a streak also featuring an 89 and a 90.

THE STAT: 14 for 379. The number of wickets, 14, and runs, 379, on an action-packed day of Test cricket.

THE QUOTE: “Nice to cash in … and put the guys in a really good position.” Travis Head.
