In his first over, Head took the wickets of Klaasen and Marco Jansen to put himself on a hat-trick, but it didn't come to fruition.
Ferguson described the bowling change as a "great move" while Ricky Ponting also praised Pat Cummins for his captaincy throughout the whole tournament.

"I think he's done a terrific job right through this tournament," he said on commentary.
"I think he's handled his bowlers really well, particularly Adam Zampa. I think he's used him really well through those middle overs, whenever he's needed a breakthrough he knows the exact right time to bring him back into the attack, especially being his leading wicket-taking option."
Miller went on to score a century for South Africa before they were bowled out for 212.
