Pakistan defeated Australia 2-1 in Australia for the first time since 2002. This is a tremendous achievement by the Pakistan cricket team as all cricket experts including Wasim Akram were predicting that Australia will win this ODI series afterall the Australians are the World Champions in this format.
Mohammad Rizwan's captaincy in his debut series as captain of the ODI and twenty20 sides was excellent. Muhammad Rizwan's tactics put the Australian batsmen under relentless pressure. Haris Rauf was phenomenal with the ball. Saim Ayub and Abdullah Shafique gave Pakistan great starts in their chase in 2nd ODI and the 3rd ODI. All the Pakistani bowlers were superb especially their pacemen.
In the end what I would like to say is that after this performance in Australia I consider Pakistan to be one of the favourites of the upcoming Champions Trophy tournament in Pakistan.
