Australia opener Travis Head accepts he will have his “work cut out” against England’s pacemen as the Ashes rivals lock horns in their Champions Trophy opener on Saturday.

Head collected the player of the one-day international series award when Australia edged England 3-2 last September, averaging nearly 83 at a strike-rate in excess of 120 with the bat and claiming a four-for in the decider with his under-rated off-spin.
