Opener Travis Head and captain Mitchell Marsh took Australia past the previous record of most runs in a powerplay in the T20Is held by South Africa on the third ball of the sixth over. This is also only the second time a team has surpassed the hundred-run mark in a T20 international.

However, it didn’t stop Head and Marsh to run riot and smash the highest ever powerplay score in the T20I history. Australia surpassed the record previously held by South Africa when they scored 102/0 in six overs against West Indies back in 2023.   Head & Marsh Demolish Scotland In Feral Display Of Batting Notably, Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh combined for 56 runs in total in the span of just two overs.
