Travis Head has illuminated a chilly, dank evening in Southampton, crashing a record-breaking half-century to ignite some Australian fireworks in a convincing 28-run triumph over England in their T20 international opener. The see-it-hit-it opener blasted the fastest ever T20I half-century by an Australian batter off just 19 balls on Wednesday night, eventually going on to 59 off 23 after the visitors had been put in by stand-in England captain Phil Salt.
Head then swatted his next ball from Saqib Mahmood into the stands at deep backward square leg to reach his 50 - also the fastest ever scored against England in a T20I — and got away with a couple more flukey boundaries before attempting one monster hit too many and skying it to deep square leg.
