Srinagar: Helped by a solid partnership up the order, Australia took head the Kiwis bowlers to amass a grand total of 388 runs, only to get a taste of its own medicine from the opponents to eventually lose it in the end.
New Zealand asked Australia to bat first after winning the toss. Travis Head who made the first appearance in this edition, smashed an exquisite 109 of mere 67 deliveries with 10 fours and 7 mighty sixes. Head on the other hand was ably supported by his partner and man in form David Warner who scored 81 of 65 deliveries.
After the fall of the opening duo, the other batters of Australia also chipped in to score 388 in stipulated 388 runs.
