Head, Smith build Australia's total

June 07, 2023 20:25

Aus 192-3 (57 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Umesh drifts on the pads as Head clips it through square leg for a single and Smith continues to be dogged with his defence, not wanting to play any loose shots at this stage.

With Head scoring at a strike rate of above 85, Australia are quite comfortably placed at the moment.

Umesh has come back well after a poor first spell as he bowls another tight over, conceding just a single in his 12th over.

Shami starts his new over with a short ball as Head miscues the pull shot. The next ball is short and wide as Head cuts it past the fielder at gully for a four as the fielder barely had time to react.

Head punches the next ball square on the off-side for a single and Smith edges the next but it falls well short of Kohli at first slip, followed by singles off the last two balls.

Head and Smith have already put on 116 runs for the fourth wicket to build Australia's total on the first day.
