Eyeing a whitewash in the series, Australia got off to a good start after chosing to field first in the toss as Aaron Hardie cleaned up Olly Hairs in the third over. But the counterattacks from George Munsey and Brandon McMullen acted as a bedrock for Scotland’s fighting total. The latter shone with a second back-to-back fifty against the same opposition before a gravity-defying take from Head stopped his immaculate ball-striking.
The fourth ball of the 17th over saw Marcus Stoinis bowl a back of a length delivery outside the off stump, angled into the right-hander from over the wicket. McMullen intended to get inside the line and swivel pull it over short fine leg. However, Head stationed at the position timed the leap perfectly to grasp the ball with his right hand and maintain his poise without spilling the ball. Subsequently, he took off his cap and paid respect in a celebratory manner, sparking applause in the Twitterverse for his excellent athleticism.
What a grab!

Blind slogger
People call Travis Head a blind slogger as well but he thrashed India in the WC and WTC final single-handedly. Similarly Pant has always escaped India from tough situations in last 3-4 years as our no. 3, 4 and 5 were out of form.

For a bloke not renowned as a particularly strong fielder, that is a hell of a catch from Travis Head.
