Australia vs Pakistan, Live Score, 3rd T20I Match, Pakistan in Australia, 2019

Pakistan

Batting R B 4s 6s SR

Imam-ul-Haq c Ben McDermott b Sean Abbott 14 15 2 0 93.33

4.3

S Abbott to Imam, OUT! Caught! Imam departs now. Abbott gets his man. A short ball outside off, Imam goes for the pull but gets a top edge which goes high in the air. Ben McDermott gets under the ball at square leg and pouches it comfortably. He had got a boundary on the last ball, not sure if that shot was needed.

Babar Azam (C) lbw b Mitchell Starc 6 7 1 0 85.71

2.2

M Starc to B Azam, OUT! Umpire's call and Australia get a massive wicket. What a comeback ball from Starc. A full, inswinging delivery. Azam looks to flick it away but can't make any connection. The ball thuds into the pads and Starc makes a loud appeal. The umpire takes his time and raises the finger. Azam, after consulting the non-striker, opts for the review. Here comes the Hot Spot, no bat on that. Nothing on the Snicko either. Where is it hitting? Here comes the Ball Tracker and it shows that it is clipping leg which means umpire's call. Pakistan keep their review but a huge blow for them early on.

Mohammad Rizwan (W) b Mitchell Starc 0 1 0 0 0

2.3

M Starc to M Rizwan, OUT! Stumps shattered! Another one bites the dust. Starc is on fire. What an inswinging delivery to shatter the stumps. This came tailing back in to the right-hander. It pitches on middle and goes the other way as Rizwan looks to bring his bat down. He misses out and the ball goes behind to disturb the timber. A golden duck for Rizwan.

Haris Sohail c Kane Richardson b Ashton Agar 8 16 0 0 50

9.1

A Agar to H Sohail, OUT! CAUGHT! Haris' struggle ends. He hasn't looked good at all and in the search of runs, he holes out. A flighted ball outside off, Sohail comes down the track and looks to clear the long off fielder but gets no timing. The ball goes straight to Kane Richardson at long off who makes no mistake. Pakistan are 4 down inside 10 overs.

Iftikhar Ahmed c Mitchell Starc b Kane Richardson 45 37 6 0 121.62

16.1

K Richardson to I Ahmed, OUT! CAUGHT! Richardson gets his second and Iftikhar Ahmed departs now. The last man who was taking Pakistan to a competitive total has to walk back now. Short delivery on off, Ahmed looks to pull but gets a top edge on it. The ball goes towards the fine leg region where Starc takes a good catch just near the fence. Pakistan seven down.

Khushdil Shah c Mitchell Starc b Kane Richardson 8 11 0 0 72.73

12.1

K Richardson to K Shah, OUT! Starc takes a very good catch and Richardson has a wicket on the first ball of his new spell. It is the debutant who departs now. A length ball on middle, Shah looks to heave it to the leg side. The ball takes the top edge and goes high in the air towards third man. Carey initially thought this could be his catch as he goes for it. However, it goes far from him and towards third man. Starc settles himself under the ball and pouches it superbly. Half the Pakistan side are back in the hut now.

Imad Wasim c Ashton Agar b Sean Abbott 6 6 0 0 100

14.3

S Abbott to I Wasim, OUT! CAUGHT! Superb catch! Abbott gets another one. He bowls another short delivery, again Wasim goes for the pull but again it comes off the top half of the bat. The ball goes high towards mid-wicket where Agar runs in and takes a wonderful diving catch. Pakistan in deep trouble here and Iftikhar the only man who is putting up a fight.

Shadab Khan c Aaron Finch b Kane Richardson 1 8 0 0 12.5

16.5

K Richardson to S Khan, OUT! CAUGHT! Shadab holes out! Length ball on middle and off, Shadab looks to heave this one over long on. The ball hits the top half of the bat and goes towards the mid off region. Finch, the Aussie skipper runs in and takes the catch on the second attempt after fumbling on the first. Pakistan in tatters here and it looks difficult to see them crossing the 120-run mark.
