Australia vs India: Steve Smith & Travis Head hit centuries in Brisbane Test

Centuries from Steve Smith and Travis Head put Australia on top despite a late burst from India’s Jasprit Bumrah on day two of the third Test in Brisbane.

The pair came together at 75-3 and shared a near-chanceless 241 for the fourth wicket, before Bumrah removed both and Mitchell Marsh with the second new ball at the Gabba.

Smith made 101 to end a run of 26 innings without a Test century, while Head crashed 152 off 160 balls for his second successive ton.

Bumrah returned to complete his 12th five-wicket haul in Tests, having earlier removed openers Usman Khawaja and Nathan McSweeney.

Alex Carey and Pat Cummins shared 58 before the latter was dismissed late in the day as Australia reached 405-7 at stumps.
