CRICKET: Ex-Ventnor star hits first international century
by Mike Vimpany
Former Ventnor and Southern Premier League cricketer Travis Head cracked his maiden One Day International century as Australia went on a run fest against Pakistan at the Adelaide Oval.
Head, who topped the SPL batting charts with 733 runs for Ventnor in 2013, hit 128 as Australia piled up a 1-day ground record score of 369-7.
The 23-year old left-hander hit three sixes and nine fours, largely playing a support role to the rampaging David Warner, who struck a blistering 179.
The opening pair put on 284 before Warner departed, having struck five maximums and 19 fours.
