Australia's star batter Travis Head made history with a stunning knock, guiding his team to an 8-wicket win over Scotland in the first T20I, giving Australia a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.

Travis Head's blazing 80 off 25 balls powered Mitchell Marsh-led Australia to chase down 155 runs with 62 balls remaining.

Head's 80 runs off 25 balls came at an astonishing strike rate of 320, making him the first cricketer from a full-member nation to achieve a strike rate of over 300 while facing 20 or more balls.

Travis Head's 80 off 25 balls is the second-fastest innings in international cricket for players who have faced over 20 balls, with Sahil Chauhan of Estonia holding the record for the fastest.

Travis Head's 50 runs off 17 balls against Scotland are now tied for the fastest half-century by an Australian batter, equaling Marcus Stoinis' record.

The left-hander's 73 runs in the powerplay are the most ever scored in the first six overs of a T20I.

Travis Head has been in outstanding form across formats. During Australia's disappointing T20 World Cup campaign, he was the team's standout performer, finishing as the third-highest run-scorer of the tournament.
