Travis Head's brutally quick 89 helps his Hyderabad chase down 166 inside just 10 overs

The ICC has announced that the Cricket World Cup final could be decided by a Super Over, if the match ends in a tie.
The Super Over would not be used in any game except the final, with the quarter finals and semis to be decided by the higher placed side coming into the knockout stage of the tournament.
This decision marks a change from the originally announced policy, where in the event of a tie there would be joint winners of the Cup.
“The ICC Board reinstated the use of a Super Over in the event of a tie in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 final,” read a statement.
“This now replicates the arrangements for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 final and other recent ICC events where a winner will be determined on the day of the final (weather permitting), and a Super Over was the most credible way to separate the two sides.”
If nothing else, the decision will make sure there is plenty of tension and excitement if the match ends in at ie.
With the success of the Super Over in the Big Bash League over the past two seasons, do you think this is the right move?
