ADELAIDE: Pakistan outclasses Australia to claim a nine-wicket victory in the second one-day<\/span> international<\/span> (ODI) on Friday at Adelaide Oval, leveling the three-match series by 1-1.<\/p>\n

Rauf claimed 5-29, his second five-wicket haul in ODIs, as Pakistan bundled out world champions Australia for 163 in 35 overs on a decent batting track, their lowest ODI score against Pakistan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mohammad Rizwan, in his first series as Pakistan’s white-ball captain, was involved in six of those dismissals, equalling the world record for most dismissals by a wicketkeeper in a <\/span>one-day<\/span> international.<\/span><\/p>\n

He could have had a seventh catch but spilled a skier from Adam Zampa late in the Australian innings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Saim Ayub hit 82 and forged a 137-run opening stand with Abdullah Shafique as Pakistan reached the target in 26.3 overs.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I’ve been bowling here for the Melbourne Stars, I know the pitch, I know the length,” Rauf said during the break between innings, referring to his stint in the Big Bash League. “I just wanted to get the breakthrough for Pakistan.”<\/span><\/p>\n

There was no sign of Australia’s impending collapse when Jake Fraser-McGurk hit Naseem Shah for three fours in the bowler’s first <\/span>over<\/span>\u00a0but was soon trapped lbw by Shaheen Afridi (3-26) for 13.<\/span><\/p>\n

Afridi, fielding near the boundary rope, spilled opener Matthew Short in the next over, but then had him caught at cover for 19.<\/span><\/p>\n

Steve Smith (35) and Josh Inglis (18) tried to rebuild the Australian innings before Rauf ran through their middle order.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inglis fell caught behind, and the Rauf-Rizwan combination also accounted for Marnus Labuschagne, Aaron Hardie, <\/span>and<\/span> Mitchell Starc. Smith survived a strong lbw appeal but fell caught behind to the next delivery from Mohammad Hasnain.<\/span><\/p>\n

Saim led Pakistan’s rapid reply, taking Pakistan past 50 without loss by pulling Pat Cummins for a flat six.<\/span><\/p>\n

Adam Zampa dropped Saim in the deep, allowing him to race to a 52-ball fifty, but eventually dismissed him after the opener had smashed six sixes in his belligerent knock.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shafique made 64 not out, and Babar Azam sealed Pakistan’s victory with a <\/span>flat six<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n
