00:00It's left-handers right-handers and Australia open with two so I'd be going with that Matthew Potts and Ben Stokes
00:08And Travis said what an impact he's had this series was was live he was the one who
00:18Straight away there's a leg slip in
00:20Terrific series Travis had 437 runs at 54
00:50Right there
00:57Flicked
01:17Delivery
01:19Played a delivery and then he kind of mirrored a pool shot
01:22He said to himself he's in that same zone the next ball
01:26You know just flick it away, and that's exactly what he's done time perfectly just a little bit too short for pots
01:39Head was waiting back for that shot pots as a pitcher get batters to nick off
01:45He knows trip
01:47And again
01:51Quite catch it was nicely
01:53the minutes like two different games
02:14Hotsbowl into head which is looking
02:17very nice in terms of the batting
02:19and then riding cars to Jake
02:21whether all the chalk and cheese
02:24surely pots has to personally try and
02:29volley York or a half volley this link
02:32three boundaries in the over
02:45it's too easy at the moment for
02:58Australia Travis head
03:00there's something about Travis head and
03:07facing this new ball because England keep feeding short and wide and I don't think it's working
03:14you must couldn't reach that way you set up
03:18like so I had to really stretch to get there
03:21England haven't bowled well to the Australian left handers throughout
03:26the sea to watch it they've all got big run
03:33they did decide to go full and Travis says thank you very much
03:49just slowing up
03:51up and over
04:13the uppercut
04:20not a good way for England to finish the ninth over
04:24and then to 48
04:26when you see Travis head playing shots like that you get a bad feeling
04:30just feeding him in that zone no third man it's not where he wants to bowl too short
04:37gobble those up Travis head
04:41it's good over up until then
04:43that's
04:45oh that's the way
05:08Travis barely leaves the crease he's just going to take a wander down now and just see his batting partner it's just too familiar
05:14seeing far too much of this throughout the series
05:19well this is his natural way anyway anything that's short anything that's in his own he's going to play his hands through it
05:25but I think even more so because it is just starting to do a little bit more that uneven bounce
05:29he's just going to look to
05:32go into launch mode
05:34beast mode
05:35he seems to thrive on the tricky pitches
05:37Travis in a way just freeze him up
05:39he just
05:41going to hit
05:44he had that sex for the Australians
05:47hey
05:48yep
05:49yep
05:50this is the wicket they want
05:51That's nicely played by head really get fully forward is such a sweet time this is the
06:19problem is that in an overall so time we think that the light meter will come out and just seen a shot
06:24like that and yesterday England were a 211 for three playing great and they went on so at the
06:30minute this red ball under these lights into these conditions can't be that hard to see when you're
06:34seeing shots like that yesterday Harry broke two overs before they strolled off drove Cameron
06:46green beautifully through the covers for four that's the frustration at the game one-handed
06:53this time from head long chase well time come back for three
06:59this trap trap ball is alive and kicking that one just evades the diving fielder he picks up for
07:17four they're fishing outside the off stump castles trying to get that edge
07:25Travis head just there another half a meter that would have gone to the plays left hand but that's
07:36bit bigger that's him isn't it as Travis head he taunts he teases you with these sort of shots he slices
07:41them out of the reach of catches and frustrates the skippers in the opposition tries again this time it meets the middle of the bat
07:5250 for Travis head
07:59Australia's new test opener is having the time of his life
08:0222nd time he's past 50 in his test career the riches are happy they're up
08:07Travis head
08:09just pumped that for four he's mercurial the previous one so streaky this one so emphatic to get the half hundred fifty four balls in
08:19again he's got England off the bit as he has so often in this five test series
08:26a mercurial player they both short to him early he just latched on anything short both offside on side it didn't matter
08:36the moment they heard gave him width that's his bread and butter but when they got too full even though the bottom
08:43hand control the off drive it's doing the boundary suddenly beautiful hands the wrists
08:50too easy for Travis head just rolls his wrists on it
08:58welcome back to the attack
09:00and he's such a good reader of bowlers tactics he knew that Matthew pots had earned on the short side in his earliest spell and he thought I bet you tries to pitch up first ball of this over
09:12and Stokes is telling him bowl fuller so he's he kept his weight forward in that little trigger forward
09:19and he was all ready for the on drive he got the ball he wanted and he's put it away to the long on boundary
09:27that's terrific reading of a bowler strategy
09:34so often on the move when he plays his shots down the ground
09:39as he plays
09:42well that's right in the zone for Travis head
09:49he gets it
09:50well that's into the road
09:52and see at each boundary now
10:05very short and Travis head said thank you very much
10:08much he's uncanny ability to hit the ball with the field is a and he knew
10:17that
10:28what
10:30the ball wins
10:43Pope couldn't cut it off which is a liking what they're seeing
10:49I just can't get it left and tries to ball
10:54into the surface it's just sitting up for Travis head and then it goes a bit full and gets driven
10:59it's no lateral movement so I don't think he's trying to swing the ball he's trying
11:03to wobble seam the ball
11:04and at the minute it's not wobbly
11:10you mentioned the Richie's
11:14that's an odd looking stroke
11:24good looking way to get that through the covers but
11:27it's a get back for a third
11:31he's trying that well so many balls have just flown out of the middle of that
11:38cricket bat that Travis head holds not just today throughout the series
11:46plenty of length and width there to work with but just got the hands through beautifully
11:53sounds so good
11:54sounds so good
11:56not so much for the English bowlers
12:00English team but travel ball has well and truly dominate
12:07four more
12:09not sure if it's off the bat
12:14yeah it is it's uh
12:16I don't know if it just flipped the pad but
12:18into the eighties goes Travis head
12:20partnership now up to 98
12:35Australia with all the momentum
12:39changing voices as the frustration continues for
12:51well he flirts out of Travis head he's
12:53yeah
12:54important innings two for life
12:58gotta say though they got it
13:01there's the Yorkers as well Stokes again to head
13:05up and under four more for Travis head
13:09used to eight to seven just eight to two balls
13:13slap it hard he says over the point
13:15gully region
13:17Stokes can't believe it
13:21throws a whole kitchen sink at it
13:23but he's probably thinking about his own batting Stokes
13:26when he batted
13:27he got
13:28left absolute Jaffers
13:30now he's bowling he can't take a trick
13:35that's what Travis head does to you he
13:37he gets good balls for
13:41certainly not a bad ball
13:48yep
13:50he worried about
13:52it pushes off the back foot he got the last
13:54line
13:55yep
14:01sort of
14:03right
14:12easy
14:15yeah
14:19Nice and four to square, so the open boundary of the day for Travis is up to 96.
14:28Dangerous signs, Travis Head, the timing on this was incredible.
14:35Just the way it pinged off the bat.
14:37Yeah, it looks to me like they don't want to give Travis Head any width at all,
14:40so they're ponying on leg stump.
14:42That's what they've got a field set for, but it's just going to pick them off.
14:45I think you've still got to work on that off stump line.
14:49Oh!
14:51Oh!
14:52Yeah!
14:54He is annoying.
14:55Yes!
14:56Oh!
14:58Oh!
15:00Oh!
15:01Oh!
15:03Oh!
15:04Cut!
15:06Oh!
15:09All right!
15:12Oh!
15:14Yep.
15:17Yep.
15:30It's an amazing noise, isn't it?
15:32The hum around it.
15:3399.
15:34The legend of Travis Head goes to a higher plane.
15:47His 12th Test Match Century, his third in the series.
15:50His first at this famous ground.
15:54The man with a cult-like following continues to give the fans what they want.
15:59He's got smiles all around the SCG.
16:00It'll take a while to think of a player that has such a huge impact in an Ashes series.
16:02The left-hander who started at number five.
16:03The left-hander who started at number five.
16:04He stood up and said,
16:07give me the job when Australia needed someone to stand up.
16:10And it's been a joyous ride.
16:26that has such a huge impact in an ashes series uh the left-hander who started at number five
16:32he stood up and said give me the job when australia needed someone to stand up
16:38and it's been a joyous ride joyous journey for travis and all those that follow up oh there's
16:44someone there yep he's finally conquered the scg
16:58and everyone here to witness it
17:28adelaide he was uh kissing the turf here he holds the coat of arms as high as he can
17:42and he's at the top of the tree at the top of his game at the moment is travis
17:49averaging 60 as an opener very much settled into that position
17:53arguably australia's most important player of the last three years
18:07he's mentioned like that
18:17yep again that's a miss under the attack
18:21and he's met
18:22this can't offer travis said anything full or short outside the eye line he's just going to throw the
18:34kitchen sink it's it it's so frustrating for ben stokes as well he's spoiled a really nice spell
18:40at his end josh tongue was bowling well down his end as well and then you you have to obviously change
18:48the bowler at some point in time you give the ball to matthew potts and this offers that up to travis
18:51head first ball well he's hitting the third test match
18:55oh make that 39 and 22
19:05but you've seen matthew potts oh well bony but
19:10is this lack of cricket that's causing this inaccuracy
19:15well i'm guessing so and maybe uh you know he's not been playing a few nerves
19:20that's what can happen 50 000 people big ashes series never played one
19:26i'm gonna gonna go uh seven two just two fields on the onside they're just gonna
19:32tell you what you put a fielder on the offside i'll just smash it through the onside
19:3943 from 23. well whenever i've watched matthew potts's highlights he gets pet batman
19:45batters to nick off by bowling full suddenly completely down on form he's being asked to
19:52bowl one side of the wicket that's the first of the boundaries to recover then the uppercut over
19:57the slips the food was stacked offside so he bowled one two straight and got whipped leg side
20:05condemning him to bowl short when he's a bowl full bowler i don't get that at all
20:09and it's clearly just uh got no rhythm 7.3 overs not gone for
20:20ripped it
20:26let's get the bomb
20:32as well
20:32and it's straight oh no oh no oh no it's will jacks an easy one the tactic nearly works straight away
20:52oh no england england
20:57in the story of the series so far they get a little look
21:00potentially opening the door the plan worked travis head
21:04just got up and under it looking to hit it for six will jacks is out there and
21:09geez he got big on him really quickly put it down you pay good money to take these
21:16you shouldn't be dropping them
21:22you can see five or six heads now just
21:25it's been a third man all out on the road
21:33over head takes the risky approach diving test cricket
21:41so what are you
21:44let a few
21:44the first man who's
21:47the first man who's
21:51and he doesn't look like he
21:56and he doesn't look like he
22:00would you have been better off
22:01That is almost a chance.
22:30Harry Brooke for a moment thought he was going to get there.
22:44Just bounced inside the rope, but the camera operator may have a very, very good shot of a kookaburra ball there.
23:00Pitch goes again.
23:07Travis heaves to the left side and he picks the gap.
23:16What an entertainer.
23:23Yeah, it's just hammered away.
23:30The cast didn't quite get it high enough.
23:32Travis just moving around the crease.
23:47Expecting the short ball.
23:48Pretty much every ball.
23:50Look at those stumps.
23:53It's almost encouraging and go on trying the ball to hit my stones.
23:57But you see it's just not staying in one spot, which makes it difficult for the bowlers.
24:04Never really tried to change the angle much either.
24:07Did they put state over the wicket a lot and allowed him that opportunity to step inside the line.
24:12Come around the wicket.
24:13Tucked him up.
24:26And I think it's gonna be a long, long time.
24:29To tuck it down brings me round again to find.
24:33I'm not the man they think I am at home.
24:36Oh, no, no, no, no.
24:39The legend of Travis head goes to a higher plane.
24:44He's 12th this match century.
24:47He's third in the series.
24:48He's first at this famous ground.
24:51The man with a cult like following continues to give the fans what they want.
25:04Well, oh my word.
25:07Have some of that sense from his head.
25:15Just hit that hard.
25:16That's it.
25:17Tremendous shot.
25:19Hot spot over the previous one I made.
25:21In fact, Travis has not been a leading baller made in this time.
25:25He's just giving himself room and flat batted that into.
25:31Bill O'Reilly stand.
25:32Yeah.
25:33Nothing better than a quick bowler steaming in.
25:35And you're absolutely pumping for six.
25:39Have some of that.
25:45It's time that.
25:46Let's have a look at the six again.
25:48Backtracking.
25:49And look at the red down the bottom.
25:51That's energy.
25:52That is power.
25:54Ball splam.
25:55As he goes up and over.
25:56For 150.
25:57Travis heads.
25:58You cannot stop him.
25:59Wow.
26:00What a player.
26:01That goes on in the desert.
26:02There's seven of them.
26:03150 pluses.
26:04That's a tremendous innings.
26:05And batting's been difficult at times on this surface.
26:08A runner ball 150.
26:09That's one there Junior.
26:10Wasn't the celebration bigger than the hundred.
26:11150 surely better than 100.
26:121,50 surely better than 100.

26:16There's seven of them.
26:17150 pluses.

26:20And batting's been difficult with times on this surface.
26:24A runner ball 150.
26:28Run a ball 150.
26:33It's one that junior was knee celebration bigger than the hundred.
26:38150 surely better than 100.
26:42I mean call me old-fashioned but.
26:47He's tired.
26:58121.
27:02Dropped on the boundary.
27:05The only false shot is played.
27:16In the channel round the wicket from tongue.
27:23Yep.
27:25The ultimate.
27:28Of course he is.
27:30Oh yeah.
27:33As the outside part of the bat is bound.
27:36And more runs off the blade of Travis Head.
27:42Yeah a bit of something there for the spinners out.
27:44Neil Jackson's already spun a couple in this over.
27:47Goes for four but yes it gets the outside edge.
27:55So strike right now.
27:58Back above 100 for Travis Head.
