Austalia vs Pakistan: 1st Test, Day 2 - 5 talking points

#3 Starc and Hazlewood blow Pakistan away

Hazlewood picked up 3 wickets on Day 2

With a gigantic score in front of them, Pakistan started their innings tentatively against Starc and Hazlewood. While Starc was accurate and pacy, bouncing the batsmen occasionally and mouthing them frequently, Hazlewood was his usual McGrath-esque self.

Starc had Azhar Ali edging behind the stumps while Hazlewood broke Pakistan's back by dismissing Babar Azam and Younis Khan off consecutive balls. Starc returned to dismiss Asad Shafiq and Yasir Shah to finish with 3/45.

Hazlewood, on the other hand, added the wicket of Wahab Riaz to finish with 3/19 off 11 extremely tight overs. The opening bowling combination of Australia has been phenomenal right through the year and they carried on their good work to pile on Pakistan's misery.
