For Pakistan, Hasan Ali scalped three wickets while Mohammad Amir and Imad Wsim took two wickets each.

Earlier, chasing 268, Pakistan started the proceeding promisingly but after the first wicket fell in the ninth over, everything went wrong for them.

Middle-order batsmen tried to hold the innings but failed. Babar Azam(33), Mohammad Rizwan (21) and Imad Wasim (29) were the only batsmen to challenge the Australian bowlers to some extent.

For Australia, James Faulkner took four wickets and Pat Cummins sent back three players.
