Travis Head's rapid hundred trumped Rachin Ravindra's gallant 116 as Australia survived late drama against New Zealand before winning the highest-scoring match in World Cup history by five runs to close in on a semi-final spot on Saturday.
Head smashed 109 in his first match of the World Cup and forged a breakneck 175-run opening stand with David Warner to propel Australia to a commanding 388 all out at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium.
Needing 19 runs off Mitchell Starc's final over, New Zealand milked 13 runs off the first four legitimate deliveries to keep the heat on Australia. Glenn Phillips broke the burgeoning stand by taking a return catch to dismiss Warner, but Head raced to a 59-ball century. New Zealand were uncharacteristically sloppy in the field, dropping five catches, with Head the beneficiary on two occasions.
