Pakistan have kept the playing eleven unchanged while Australia brought in Josh Hazlewood
ADELAIDE (Dunya News) - Pakistan speedsters, led by Haris Rauf, bowled Australia out for 163 runs in the second One-Day International at the Adelaide Oval here on Friday.
Haris was the wrecker-in-chief who grabbed five wickets while conceding 29 runs in his six overs. Shaheen Afridi captured three wickets for 26 while Hasnain and Naseem removed one batsman each.
Australian batsmen punished Naseem who conceded 65 runs in his quota of 10 overs.
Steve Smith was the top scorer with 35 runs. Opener Matt Short contributed 19 runs, Fraser-McGurk 13, Josh Inglis 18, Aaron Hardie 14 and Glenn Maxwell 16.
Earlier, Pakistan won the toss and decided to put Australia in to bat in the second ODI of the three-match series.
Pakistan have kept the playing eleven unchanged while Australia have made one change bringing in Josh Hazlewood.
Australia are leading the series 1-0 after defeating Pakistan in Melbourne by two wickets.
Talking after the toss, Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan said they were fielding the same squad that played the first ODI. "We fought very well in MCG but unfortunately lost. There might be moisture in the pitch and we would try to take advantage of that."
Australian captain Pat Cummins said he would have done the same had he won the toss.
He said Sean Abbott was dropped out and Hazlewood brought back as the pitch here has lots of grass on it and bounce. "It's always great to play here."
