It is pertinent to mention that Pakistan’s fast bowling unit was under the scanner and several cricketers and a vast section of social media claimed that Pakistan would be unable to dismiss Australia twice in a Test match.
However, they took advantage of the seam-friendly conditions and restricted the hosts to 318 in the first innings and 262 in the second.
Shaheen Afridi, who is considered star bowler for the visitors, stepped up and troubled Australia with his thunderbolts. Moreover, left-arm pacer Mir Hamza’s inclusion turned out to be a good move, and Aamer Jamal impressed as well.
