New Delhi [India], Jan 26: When coming in to open the innings with David Warner in the second inning of fourth ODI, Travis Head ensured Australia do not miss out on Aaron Finch who was ruled out due to an injury. Head started scoring in boundaries and gave a good start to the home side. But veteran batsmen David Warner once again failed to deliver and edged one straight to Jos Buttler off Chris Woakes. England all rounder Chris Woakes was brilliant with an innings of 78 runs of 82 balls was magical innings. Cameron White, who has been called back in the side, too failed to deliver as he was adjudged LBW out on Tom Curran’s delivery. Rashid Ali struck thrice to bring England back in the game dismissing Steve Smith, Mitchell Marsh and Marcus Stoinis in quick succession to bring a few hopes to England. Head continued to go about his business, scoring his 7th half century. He and Tim Paine stitched a partnership to steer Australia to victory, before he was caught at mid-on off Mark Wood on 96 run. Pat Cummins got run out on 2 with Australia still needing 12 runs to win, leaving Tim Paine incharge to do the job, who completed it for his side. Australia beat England by 3 wickets, to take the series to 3-1.
