Travis Head admits the enormity of his semi-final and final performances to help Australia to the World Cup win over India are still sinking in, as he arrived home in Adelaide on Tuesday.
Head recorded massive knocks of 62 in the semi final and 137 in the final, guiding Australia to an unlikely six-wicket victory over the hosts, who were undefeated up until the biggest game of the tournament.
"It won't sink in for a long time," Head said at Adelaide Airport on Tuesday.

"I said after the game I was looking forward to the 10- and 20-year reunions. It's an incredible bunch of blokes which were able to achieve some pretty special things throughout the 12 months.
"Obviously the Test Championship, a World Cup final, to be involved in both of them is quite incredible."
As for his hilarious World Cup celebrations, which were shared largely across social media, Head says he doesn't regret the antics, instead holding them as memories he will cherish forever.
"I probably threw myself under the bus a little bit with a few of the photos I posted throughout the couple days after (the World Cup win)," he said.
"You've got to celebrate it the right way. I think we did that.
"There was a few standouts off the field as well. It's just what makes the team so enjoyable to be around. Enjoy each other's successes, enjoy it as a team."
Head declared himself ready for Australia's first Test of the summer, taking on Pakistan in Perth, beginning on December 14.
