Twenty-nine-year-old Head debuted for the Australia T20 International team in early 2016; he would make his One Day International debut for the Aussies later in the same year. With time, the batter became a significant cog in the all-conquering Australia machine, adding an extra dimension to the team through his power and precision while also pitching in with the ball when required. His 137 runs in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 final helped Australia beat hosts India in the Ahmedabad-based final.
Earlier in the day, Rajasthan Royals bagged West Indian smasher Rovman Powell for 7.40 Crore INR while Delhi Capitals later thwarted a challenger from the Royals to secure the services of Harry Brook for 4 Crore INR. Steve Smith, Rilee Rossouw, Karun Nair, and Manish Pandey went unsold from Set 1.
