Australia won the only t20 against Pakistan in Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore. Both Captain’s stepped on the ground with a high morale to win the only icc t20i match happening between No 3 and No 5 ranked teams in ICC Ranking for teams in t20I. Finch won the toss and elected to bowl first keeping in view of the dew factor. Babar and Rizwan the dream opening pair of Pakistan came to bat and scored 67 runs partnership, bith were playing good and everything was in Pakistan’s favor until Rizwan failed to pick an off-cutter from Green and got bowled and right after that Fakhar departed on the very first ball when Finch got an excellent catch in the 30 yard circle. Babar once again scored a stylish 50. Babar and Khushdil took Pakistan to 118-3 when Babar departed on Zampa wide of the off-stump ball. At the moment it was looking difficult for Pakistan to reach the total of 150 but courtesy of Usman Qadir, Pakistan scored 17 in the last over and gave the target of 162 to the guests. Then came Australian openers who showed their clear intent when they scored 40 in 3 overs. But the new coming batsman didn’t stoped hitting boundaries and Australia were 63-1 after powerplay. Australian batsman came, hit and went but Finch remain on the pitch for his team to finish off the things. Shaheen got Finch in the last over of the innings but it was too late for them to get back and Australia completed the chase with 7 wickets down. Aaron Finch was MOM for his 55 off 45 with 6 Fours in his sensible inning. Pakistan has now some serious concerns regarding their middle order and bowlers like Hassan who have been in bad form for past 1 year.
