What a start for Pakistan as Shaheen Shah Afridi castles Alex Carey on the first ball of the first over. The ball stopped a bit on the surface and shaped away, Carey tried to cut the ball but got an inside edge and the rolled back onto his stumps. An unlucky way to get out for any batter.

AUS 6/1 (1)

After losing Alex Carey, Josh Inglis and Matt Short have managed to sit an unbeaten 38-run stand for the 2nd wicket. The partnership has comeback at a brisk pace of over 6 runs an over. As the Aussie batter were looking comfortably against the pacers, skipper Shaheen Afridi brought in the spin duo of Arafat Minhas and Abrar Ahmed into the attack.

PAK 38/1 (6)

Australia are trouble as they lose two wickets in quick successions to Pakistani spinners Abrar Ahmed and Arafat Minhas. Matt Short was the first one to go who got beaten by the pace of the pitch and ended giving an easy rebound catch to Abrar Ahmed. Marnus Labuschagne, who's known to play spin well then followed suit as he top edged a ball from Minhas while attempting a sweep shot, putting his side under immense pressure.

AUS 51/3 (11)

The runs have dried up as Pakistan have gone all in with spin against the Aussie batters. The wickets is assisting spin as there's not much pace in the wicket with the odd ball turning. AUS need a big partnership from Josh Inglis and Cameron Green, if they want to reach to a competitive total.

AUS 74/3 (17)

Though the flow of runs have dried up but Australia have managed to stitch a small 32-run partnership between Josh Inglis and Cameron Green. The wicket is not easy to bat on as the ball is not coming onto the bat quickly making it difficult for batters to time the ball. If Australia manage to get a total upwards of 250 and dew doesn't come in, then it could get difficult for PAK to chase it down.

AUS 83/3 (22)

Josh Inglis' long vigil in the middle comes to an end as he departs after scoring a well-made 51 off 74 balls. Inglis just reached to his half-century and when it was looking that he's all set for a big one, a ball from left-arm spinner Minhas stays low and goes past Inglis to rattle his stumps.

AUS 103/4 (27)

It has been tough for the Aussie batters out on the crease, with Renshaw and Green finidng it hard to get going. The partnership is worth 31 runs, and the visitors need this to stay for some time if they want to post a competitive total.

AUS 133/4 (34)

Pakistan got the timely wicket of Cameron Green, who departs after scoring a slow yet resilient 53 off 92 balls. Abrar Ahmed was the bowlers, who got the priced wicket, leaving Australia five down. Oliver Peake joins the well-set Matt Renshaw (34*) at the crease for the last eight overs.

AUS 180/5 (43)

AUS are in trouble again as they are facing yet another below-par score on Pakistani soil. 200 all out in the 1st ODI and now, they are 203/7 with three overs to go. Pakistani bowlers should find it easy given they'll be bowling to tail-enders.

Thanks to a handy late knock from Oliver Peake, Australia finish with 231 in 50 overs. At 47 overs, it was looking quite bleak for the visitors with another disappointing performance but Peake made sure they have something to bowl at against PAK.

PAK have lost both their openers in the early two overs. Sahibzada Farhan and Maaz Sadaqat have to walk back for early dinner. Superb start for the visitors and now the onus will again fall on the shoulders of Babar Azam.

Pakistan: 13/2 (3 Overs)

Australia: 231/9 (50 Overs)

Australia's evening gets better and better. The former PAK captain Babar Azam is trapped leg before and is immediately given out on field. He sends it upstairs but it's three reds and Babar has to walk back.

Pakistan: 35/3 (6 Overs)

Australia: 231/9 (50 Overs)

PAK have lost their fourth wicket and this time it's Salman Agha. The all-rounder is cleaned up by Matthew Short and Australia are on top in this match.

Pakistan: 53/4 (10 Overs)

Australia: 231/9 (50 Overs)

Australia have snatched their fifth wicket in the form of Abdul Samad and Pakistan are now really in big trouble! The hosts, who looked off colour in the 1st match, have really made a match out of this and have given PAK something to think about.

Pakistan: 67/5 (15 Overs)

Australia: 231/9 (50 Overs)

Pakistan need 144 runs and have four wickets remaining as Australia close in on an important victory in Lahore. Australia bowlers have been superb with their lines and lengths.

Pakistan: 88/6 (20 Overs)

Australia: 231/9 (50 Overs)

Pakistan need 120 runs with 25 overs still remaining but it's Australia in the ascendency. The hosts need a big partnership but another wicket and Australia will smell blood.

Arafat Minhas and Shadab Khan are in no mood to give up for the hosts as they chase down 232 for victory. AUS need one good delivery to send one of the set batter back to the pavillion.

This has been a superb match. Great contest between bat and ball as Australia finally saw the back of Minhas with the visitors now requiring three wickets to close out the game.

Pakistan: 156/7 (35 Overs)

Australia: 231/9 (50 Overs)

Shadab Khan is keeping Pakistan alive in the contest. Pakistan need 53 runs in 60 balls and it's all on Shadab now. Australia need to close this out with the two wickets but if Shadab keeps his wicket till the end, it's the hosts who will be walking back with a series victory.

Pakistan: 179/8 (40 Overs)

Australia: 231/9 (50 Overs)
