Pakistan vs Australia, 3rd Test, Day 2 Highlights:Abdullah Shafique and Azhar Ali steadied Paksitan's ship as Pakistan reached 90 for one at stumps on Day2 of the third and final Test in Lahore on Tuesday. Pakistan were trailing Australia by 301 runs, with Shafiue and Azhar batting on 45 and 30, respectively. Earlier, Australia were bowled out for 391 in their first innings. Resuming at 232-5, Australia added 159 runs with Cameron Green scoring 79 and Alex Carey 67. For Pakistan, the pace duo of Naseem Shah (4-58) and Shaheen Shah Afridi (4-79) were the main wicket-takers. At the start of play Pakistan would have felt they could make early inroads with the second ball only five overs old. But Australia, who resumed at 232-5, took advantage of a placid Gaddafi Stadium pitch to bat through 28 overs unscathed. The series is tied 0-0 after the first two Tests, in Rawalpindi and Karachi, ended in draws.
