He moved to 109 when he was clean-bowled by off-spinner Glenn Phillips.
By that stage, Australia were 200-2 inside the 24th over and looking set for a huge total.
With Warner, Head put on 175 in the first 20 overs before his veteran partner was dismissed for 81.
Warner, who turned 37 on Friday, had been looking for a third successive century but eventually fell for 81 when he chipped a catch back to Phillips.
