While batting in the 5th position, Travis Head scored an exceptional century and played a knock of 140 runs in 141 balls. Indian bowlers struggled to send him back to the pavilion. After that, Siraj dismissed him and gave him a send-off. Head didn’t take is lightly. Both had a heated moment on the field.

In the 82nd over, Siraj was bowling and Starc came to bat. In the second ball, Starc hit Siraj for an excellent boundary. The Adelaide crowd erupted into cheer and booed became even louder. That moment grabbed the limelight in the match.
5 Down Already, Team India In Deep Trouble
After bundling out Australia, Team India came to bat to bat in the second innings. After being all out in just 180 runs, Team India’s setbacks continued in the second innings. In the fourth over, Cummins came to bowl and Rahul was on strike. On a short delivery of the Aussie skipper, Rahul was dismissed scoring only 7 runs. In the 9th over, Scott Boland dismissed Jaiswal on the very first delivery.
These two consecutive dismissals added pressure on the Indian side. But the biggest heartbreak came when Boland dismissed Kohli in just 11 runs. Within the 15th over, Team India was 66/3.
