Matthew Short b Saim Ayub 5 4 1 0 125

1.5

Saim Ayub to Matthew Short, OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! AYUB DRAWS FIRST BLOOD! Bowls the carrom ball, sliding into the middle stump line, much slower through the air, attacking the stumps. Short tries to heave it across the line but misses, and the ball rattles the stumps. Short goes for just 5. Australia suffer an early blow.

Travis Head (C) c Babar Azam b Saim Ayub 23 13 2 2 176.92

3.2

Saim Ayub to Travis Head, OUT! SAIM AYUB GETS THE BIG FISH! Tossed up full, on off. Head shimmies down and looks to clear the long off boundary, but it comes off the cue end, and it goes to Babar Azam coming in from the ropes, who takes a good, sharp catch. Australia lose their skipper for 23. The visitors are two down.

Cameron Green c Babar Azam b Mohammad Nawaz 36 31 3 1 116.13

12.2

Mohammad Nawaz to Cameron Green, OUT! MOHAMMAD NAWAZ GETS THE SET BATTER! Tossed up full, on off. Green makes space and tries to launch it over the long off fence, but he fails to get the height or the distance. Babar Azam, near the ropes, times his jump to perfection, and hangs onto a sharp chance. Australia slide further.

Matt Renshaw run out (Salman Agha / Usman Khan) 15 11 1 1 136.36

7.1

Abrar Ahmed to Matt Renshaw, OUT! RUN OUT! Miscommunication and Renshaw has to go. Tossed up on the pads, Renshaw tucks it to Salman Agha at mid-wicket and runs across. Green is ball-watching and wasn't aware of the run. Sends back Renshaw from halfway down. Till then, Agha throws it to the keeper, who clips the bails off in a flash.

Cooper Connolly b Abrar Ahmed 0 2 0 0 0

7.3

Abrar Ahmed to Cooper Connolly, OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Another one bites the dust! Ahmed bowls a flatter delivery, outside off from around the wicket and turns in sharply. Cooper Connolly rocks back and cuts but gets beaten by the turn. Connolly fails and it crashes into the off pole. Huge turn on that one. Pakistan all over Australia with the double-wicket.

Mitchell Owen run out (Mohammad Nawaz) 8 8 1 0 100

10.1

Mohammad Nawaz to Cameron Green, OUT! RUN-OUT! UNLUCKY WAY TO GO FOR OWEN! Flatter arm ball, just outside off. Green goes back and flat-bats it to Nawaz, who gets a hand on the way, before it ricochets onto the stumps at the bowler's end. Owen is out of the crease, and Pakistan have appealed for the run-out check. The TV umpire has been referred to check the replay. The replay confirms that the ball has made contact with the finger, and it is given OUT on the big screen. Owen departs for 8. Australia are five down.

Josh Philippe (W) c Saim Ayub b Abrar Ahmed 12 10 0 0 120

15.4

Abrar Ahmed to Josh Philippe, OUT! GONE! Josh Philippe goes and takes the remaining hopes with him. A carrom ball, touch shorter and around off, Josh Philippe goes back and opens up the leg side as he takes his front foot away, pulls it high and to deep square leg where Saim Ayub holds onto it.

13.5

Shadab Khan to Jack Edwards, OUT! SHARP CATCH SENDS EDWARDS PACKING! Tossed up full, googly, on off. Edwards heaves it aerially toward the long on region. Babar Azam comes running in from the ropes and dives forward to take a brilliant grab. Australia slide into more trouble. Seven down now.
