India had dropped Australia's three wickets for 76 runs. After this, Travis Head, who came to bat, scored fast runs and brought his team to a very strong position.

 

Along with scoring a century in this match, Travis Head made many records in his name. He is the first batsman to score a century in the final of the World Test Championship. No batsman was able to score a century in the first final of the Test Championship. At present, the biggest score in the final of the Test Championship is also in the name of Head. He is still unbeaten and will have a chance to score a double-century on the second day.

 

Inducted into the club of Sachin and Clive Lloyd

Travis Head has also joined the list of batsmen to score the first century in a knockout match of an ICC tournament. The first century in the knockout match of the ODI World Cup was scored by West Indies veteran batsman Clive Lloyd. At the same time, in the knockout match of the Champions Trophy, the first century came from the bat of India's Sachin Tendulkar. Now Travis Head has scored the first century of the Test Championship.

 

Biggest partnership in the final of an ICC tournament
