Chasing down 534 runs, the Australian team was 79/5 at one stage with all the top batters being dismissed. However, to rescue the Aussies in between came Travis Head who started to take on the Indian bowlers along with Mitchell Marsh. The duo added 82 runs from 87 for the sixth wicket and at one point it looked the Aussies can pull off history in Perth. Though, Indian captain Jasprit Bumrah had different plans as he came back into the attack and dismissed the dangerman Head for 89 runs from 101 balls. The joy of the wicket was so much that the Indian captain was pumped up and showcased aggression while Travis Head was walking back. Virat Kohli who was standing in at slips joined Bumrah into the celebration and showcased the fans his aggressive avatar.
