The full delivery was outside off, Riaz bent low and toe-ended the loft towards mid-off. Starc moved sideways and completed the formalities. Riaz c Starc b Pat Cummins 6(8)

Key Moments

11:07 AM
Pakistan have plenty to ponder about if they have to go back home with a win. The tour only gets tougher as Azhar Ali might be ruled out with an hamstring injury. Will they be able to turn it around in less than 48 hours? Join us back on Sunday to find out. For now, goodbye and cheers!

The chase was always going to be difficult for Pakistan, at least keeping their past record in mind. Sharjeel and Azhar Ali got them off to a safe start, but a mini delay in play broke the partnership. From thereon it was a downward slide. Babar Azam and Umar Akmal showed some promise, but once the latter got out it was hard to stop the wicket-flow. Faulkner was the most effective Australian bowler (4/32), he varied it smartly to register his best figures in ODIs and was well support by Cummins (3/33).
