- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.4 taken at deep backward square...a length ball, angled into the pads, Short flicks it sweetly but doesn't get the distance 35/21.1 straight to cover! Gives himself some room outside off, looks to thrash this over the off side, picks out Babar Azam 16/15.3 a short ball, picks out deep square leg...plays a hook while squatting on it, picks out the fielder. Good innings from Maxwell 66/35.6 back of a length, heaves into the leg side, taken at long-on and there was almost a collision with deep midwicket. That was a superb effort by Farhan to hold on. Abbas did his job that over 73/4Extras3 (lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL93/4 (7 Overs, RR: 13.28)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Jake Fraser-McGurk, 1.1 ov), 2-35 (Matthew Short, 2.4 ov), 3-66 (Glenn Maxwell, 5.3 ov), 4-73 (Tim David, 5.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.4 skied to midwicket! 135kph, jammed into the body this time, Farhan tries to pull and gets it off the sticker, it floats high to midwicket and Bartlett backtracks to take the catch 8/11.1 sliced to backward point! Full on off, Rizwan tries to whip across the line, gets a top edge that flies off his helmet high to backward point and Fraser-McGurk does well to take the catch 12/22.1 holes out to deep midwicket! Length slower ball on off, Babar swings hard and gets a good piece of it to the long boundary but it falls about two metres short and Fraser-McGurk takes the catch well 16/41.6 taken at deep third! Short did well under a very high ball. He backed away outside leg too far and had to reach outside off, got a thick edge off the toe of the bat that sails to deep third and Short has a safe pair of hands 16/33.2 top edge straight up and Inglis takes it! Seam up into the surface, on off, he tried to whip behind square and gets a top edge, Inglis calls out short fine and runs across to take the catch 24/62.3 another one taken at deep midwicket! Fraser-McGurk again. Another great slower ball, he's through the shot too soon, scooping it towards deep midwicket, Fraser-McGurk races in and makes it look easy 16/55.2 holes out to deep midwicket! Short slower ball, he tries to take on the long boundary but miscues and it's an easy catch for Short in the deep 47/76.5 bowled him! Flatter on leg, he charges and it skids through the gaping gate and clips the top of leg 64/86.6 castled! Australia win. Zampa finishes on a hat-trick. Flatter and quicker at middle, he swings hard but misses and the stumps are clattered 64/9Extras2 (lb 2)TOTAL64/9 (7 Overs, RR: 9.14)Did not bat: Haris RaufFall of wickets: 1-8 (Sahibzada Farhan, 0.4 ov), 2-12 (Mohammad Rizwan, 1.1 ov), 3-16 (Usman Khan, 1.6 ov), 4-16 (Babar Azam, 2.1 ov), 5-16 (Irfan Khan, 2.3 ov), 6-24 (Salman Agha, 3.2 ov), 7-47 (Haseebullah Khan, 5.2 ov), 8-64 (Shaheen Shah Afridi, 6.5 ov), 9-64 (Naseem Shah, 6.6 ov)
