Paceman Hazlewood ripped through to reduce the tourists from 67 for four to go to the close on the third day at 68 for seven, a lead of 82, on a deteriorating pitch. Hazlewood swung the contest, taking 4-9 off five overs, after Australia snared two wickets for just one run in the first eight balls of the second innings to rock the Pakistan top order. 


Pakistan’s hopes hinge on Mohammad Rizwan, who is six not out, and Aamer Jamal, yet to score. The visitors looked to have the edge after dismissing Australia for 299, to take a first-innings lead of 14, on the back of an inspired 6-69 from Jamal. 

Brief scores
Pakistan 313 & 68-7 (S Ayub 33, B Azam 23; J Hazlewood 4-9) v Australia 299 (M Labuschagne 60, M Marsh 54, U Khawaja 47, S Smith 38, A Carey 38; A Jamal 6-69, A Salman 2-43)
