Australia beats Pakistan by 7 wickets in third T20
The third match of the ongoing T20 series between Australia and Pakistan (AUS vs PAK) was played today on 18 November at Bellerive Oval ground. Let us tell you that in this match, former captain of Pakistan team Babar Azam wanted to go ahead and play the shot against spinner Adam Zampa. But Babar’s advance proved costly for them. After scoring 41 runs in 28 balls, Babar was out after playing a wrong shot.
Babar wanted to play a big shot on the third ball of the 13th over of Pakistan’s innings, which batted first in the match, but the experienced Jampa showed cleverness and instead of bowling a length delivery, he bowled a full ball, which scattered Babar’s batsmen. So as soon as Babar was out in the match, the video of his dismissal quickly went viral on social media.
