Lahore Test LIVE Updates – Day 1 Stumps: Steven Smith and opener Usman Khawaja held the reins of the Aussie innings on Day 1 with a 138 runs stand.
Shaheen Afridi started a fiery spell for the hosts when he dispatched David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne in a single over. Australia won the toss and elected to bat first.
Afridi, 21, did the early damage, striking twice in his second over to dismiss opener David Warner for seven and No. 3 Marnus Labuschagne before he had scored, to reduce Australia to 8-2 after they won the toss and opted to bat.
Naseem, 19, drafted into the Pakistan side in place of all-rounder Faheem Ashraf, hurt the tourists in the final session, dismissing a well-set Steve Smith for 59 and Travis Head for 26 as Australia reached 232-5 at close.
All-rounder Cameron Green was unbeaten on 20 for Australia with wicketkeeper-batter Alex Carey eight not out.
Usman Khawaja Shines Again: After their shaky start, it was opener Usman Khawaja who led Australia’s fightback with a resilient 91, adding to scores of 97, 160 and 44 not out in his last three innings in his country of birth.
Khawaja Smith Century Partnership: The left-handed Khawaja, who added 138 for the third wicket with Smith, appeared set for his 12th Test hundred before Pakistan captain Babar Azam completed a one-handed catch at slip off spinner Sajid Khan.
Smith, Australia’s batting mainstay, was out leg before for 59 after completing his third successive half-century. The first two tests of the series – the first between the sides in Pakistan since 1998 – were drawn.
Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium was hosting a test match for the first time since the 2009 attack by gunmen on a bus carrying the Sri Lankan cricket team.
After left-armer Afridi’s two early wickets, Australia could have been in even deeper trouble but Pakistan failed to capitalise on chances offered by Khawaja and Smith.
Looking to dominate left-arm spinner Nauman Ali from the onset, Khawaja, on 12, flashed hard at a full-pitched delivery but the edge flew under the hands of Babar Azam in the lone slip position. On the next delivery, Nauman failed to hold a straightforward return catch from Smith, who was on 19. Off-spinner Sajid also spilled a return catch off Head when he was on seven.
Pakistan Playing XI: Abdullah Shafique, Imam Ul Haq, Azhar Ali, Babar Azam (capt), Fawad Alam, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Nauman Ali, Sajid Khan, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah
