AUS vs PAK 3rd T20I: Uncontrollable Stoinis guides Australia to thumping victory
Australia completed a comprehensive whitewash of Pakistan in the three-match T20I series, as they thrashed the visitors in the third and final match on Monday at Ninja Stadium. Marcus Stoinis played a monstrous 61-run innings, involving five fours and as many six, to help Australia hand the visitors a seven-wicket defeat.
Pakistan, after deciding to bat, were bowled out for a mere 117 runs in just 18.1 overs, setting Australia an achievable target. The hosts chased down the target with ease, reaching 118/3 in 11.2 overs, ensuring a dominant win and a clean sweep of the series.
Pakistan's decision to bat first backfired as they were unable to get a good start. The Australian bowlers dominated from the outset, with every bowler contributing to the collapse of the Pakistani batting line-up. Babar Azam was the lone warrior for Pakistan, top-scoring with a patient 41 runs off 28 balls. His knock, however, lacked the support of his teammates, with the rest of the batters failing to make significant contributions.
The Australian bowlers delivered a disciplined and collective performance. Fast bowler Aaron Hardie was particularly effective, finishing with impressive figures of 3/21, while spinner Adam Zampa and fast bowler Spencer Johnson took two wickets each. Pakistan's bowlers, on the other hand, got early breakthroughs, but Marcus Stoinis stood tall to guide Australia home. Australia's commanding win in the third T20I capped off an exceptional series performance, as they whitewashed Pakistan 3-0
