Australia beat Pakistan in 5th ODI to win series
The green shirts have lost the series 4-1 to the Aussies
ADELAIDE (Dunya News) – Australia has beaten Pakistan in 5th and last One-Day International (ODI) by 57 runs on Thursday.
The green shirts have lost the series 4-1 to the Aussies.
Chasing Australia’s 369, Azhar Ali got out in third over after scoring just six runs.
Sharjeel Khan and Babar Azam kept the innings composed and constructed a wonderful partnership of 130 runs. Sharjeel was dismissed on 79 in 25th over by Mitchell Starc who took the wicket of Azhar Ali as well.
Mohammad Hafeez replaced Sharjeel Khan at the crease and went back without troubling the scorers much. He could register only three runs and became the third victim of Mitchell Starc.
Shoaib Malik then joined Babar Azam but remained unlucky as he was hit on the forearm off the bowling of Cummins and was retired hurt on 10 runs.
Babar Azam got out as soon as he completed his century followed by Mohammad Rizwan (6).
Pakistan were 246 runs for the loss of five wickets in 40 overs, with Umar Akmal (30) and Mohammad Amir (0) in the middle.
