Abrar Ahmed to Mitchell Owen
OUT! LBW! Abrar Ahmed joins the party now. He bowls this a bit quicker, full and on middle, Mitchell Owen goes down for the sweep again but this is too full for that shot. The ball sneaks under the bat and hits his pads right in front of the stumps. There is an appeal for LBW, and up goes the finger. However, Owen takes the review. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds, with the ball hitting the middle and leg stumps. Pakistan just two wickets away from the win now.

Cooper Connolly comes out of his crease but cannot lay a bat on it due to the massive turn. Khawaja Nafay, the keeper, does well to move to his right to grab it, and then breaks the stumps with his left hand, with Cooper out of his crease. Australia are 82/7 now.

DRINKS! Pakistan have gone further ahead in the game, with the wicket of Marcus Stoinis. Australia recovered from the early loss of wickets, but will have to once again start from the bottom. However, the problem for them is that the new batters cannot really take much time, with the pressure of the asking rate. With the series already gone, it will be interesting to see how they approach this now. Whether they go all out attack and don't think much about losing wickets, or try to take this one deep. Also, Josh Philippe walks out to bat now.

A flawless 3-0 triumph - That brings the curtain down on both the game and the series, with Pakistan clinching a dominant 3-0 win as captain Salman Agha lifts the trophy alongside his jubilant teammates and poses for some pictures behind the Winners' banner. With silverware secured, both sides now turn their focus to the warm-up fixtures ahead of the 2026 T20 World Cup, where Pakistan face Ireland on Wednesday, 4 February, and Australia take on the Netherlands on Thursday, 5 February. Thanks for joining us for the coverage, and there is still plenty of cricket to enjoy, with Sri Lanka and England currently locking horns in the second T20I, just a tab away. Cheers!
