- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.4 top-edges it, and it's the simplest catch for midwicket. Johnson banged this in short and Farhan tried to pull it over the onside, but couldn't get on top of the bounce. Johnson picks up his wicket-taking prowess from where he left off 17/112.3 Zampa knocks him over! Babar skipped down the ground but ends up yorking himself. It's the googly as well, and it crashes into leg stump. Babar walks back for a 28-ball 41 91/56.5 doesn't pick the googly, and Zampa, as ever, gets his side the breakthrough. Haseebullah tries to smear it through the onside, and gets the outside edge, as he has done a few times this innings. But with the spinner, it doesn't fly over short third's head, and Short takes a simple catch 61/27.3 carved over the top of cover, and it goes straight down sweeper cover's throat! Usman tends to take time before he really gets going, but sounds like he'd been told to whack it right from the outset, and never looked convincing. He danced down the ground again, and gave it an ungainly whack while he was out of position, and doesn't middle it. Pakistan lose their third, and Australia suddenly pulling things back 64/39.4 rapped on the pads and the umpire raises his finger! Agha tried to slap it over midwicket, but never got close to it. Hit his bent back leg on the knee roll, and that was as plumb as you get. The captain's miserable innings comes to an end - 1 from 9. 70/413.1 Direct hit and he's a goner! Afridi taps a slower ball towards midwicket and Irfan again hared off for the run. But there was no run there and Afridi sends him back, but he was halfway down. Spencer Johnson makes no mistake as he picks it up and hits the bullseye at the non-striker's end. He can do no wrong right now! 92/613.5 He skies it and it goes to Matt Short in the deep! Aaron Hardie gets his third with a length ball that Abbas looks to hit out of the park. Miscues it and Pakistan have lost their third wicket in nine balls 92/717.3 Ellis gets the debutant! Full around leg, slower ball again, Jahandad looks to flick it for six. But Stoinis does really well moving to his right from deep midwicket to grab that 116/916.5 Bartlett comes back with a slower ball! It's a slower bouncer on leg and Shaheen looks to pull again, but is done in by the lack of pace. Ends up gloving it in the air and Inglis makes no mistake 116/818.1 Yorks him! Straight through Sufiyan Muqeem. Perfect yorker on middle and it sneaks under the bat as Muqeem jams it down.

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.1 slower ball fools Short all ends up. He plays through the ball too early, sending it looping up to mid-on. Knows he's toast as soon as he hits it, and Pakistan get an early breakthrough 16/13.3 but now we see the worst of him as he holes out playing an ungainly hoick to cover-point. It was a back of the hand ball he didn't pick and never came close to timingHe's disgusted with himself but he's fallen this way very often this series. Still, handy little knock but Pakistan get another breakthrough. 30/29.5 Inglis scoops this to short fine leg! He gets across the stumps and in position early, Abbas Afridi takes the pace off as he goes length around off. Inglis ends up lobbing it straight to the fielder and Rauf almost spills it, but holds on on his third go 85/3Extras3 (lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL118/3 (11.2 Overs, RR: 10.41)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Matthew Short, 2.1 ov), 2-30 (Jake Fraser-McGurk, 3.3 ov), 3-85 (Josh Inglis, 9.5 ov)
