It was a boundary-scoring fest during the T20I match against Scotland, where Australia registered their names in the history books by scoring the most runs in the powerplay of the T20 international format

The Aussies dominated the powerplay as they scored 113 runs against Scotland which is the most by any team in the format

Earlier, South Africa held the record. They scored 102 runs for the loss of no wickets against West Indies at Centurion back in 2023

Swashbuckling Travis Head smashed 80 runs off just 25 deliveries. His knock was laced with 12 fours and 5 sixes

Skipper Mitchell Marsh tonked three sixes and 5 fours. His innings ended with a score of 39 runs off 12 balls

Josh Inglis provided the finishing touches with his 27* off 13 deliveries to wrap up the game with more than ten overs to spare. Australia chased the target of 155 runs in just 9.4 overs
