Harris Rauf tears through Australia, skittles them out for 163

Pakistan's pace sensation Harris Rauf unleashed a devastating spell to dismantle Australia, dismissing them for a paltry 163 in the second T20I in Lahore

Rauf, who has emerged as one of the most exciting fast bowlers in the world, wreaked havoc with his raw pace and variations, finishing with figures of 3/26 from his four overs.

The right-armer struck early, removing opener Ben McDermott for a duck in the second over, and then returned to dismiss Glenn Maxwell and Tim David in quick succession, leaving Australia reeling at 45/3.

Australia's batting woes continue

Australia's batting woes continued as they struggled to cope with the pace and movement of Pakistan's bowlers.

Mitchell Marsh top-scored with 38, but no other batsman managed to cross the 30-run mark.

Pakistan's bowlers maintained a consistent line and length, making it difficult for the Australian batsmen to score freely.

Pakistan in command

Pakistan took complete control of the match after Australia's batting collapse.

Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam put on a 109-run opening partnership to put Pakistan in a commanding position.

Zaman fell for 62, but Azam continued to anchor the innings, finishing unbeaten on 66 as Pakistan cruised to a comfortable victory.

Rauf's dominance

Harris Rauf was the star of the show for Pakistan, showcasing his exceptional talent and ability to perform on the biggest stage.

His pace, control, and variations proved too much for the Australian batsmen, who were unable to find any rhythm or momentum.

Rauf's performance once again highlighted his status as one of the most dangerous fast bowlers in the world.
