Pakistan vs Australia 3rd test: After displaying powerful performance in the first two tests against Pakistan, Australia are in a strong position at the moment in the third test. The tourists managed to bowl out hosts at 268 after scoring 391 runs in the first innings, building a first-inning lead of 123 runs. 

While talking about day 3 of the test, Pakistan were comfortable at 248/3 at one point but Australian pacers Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins brought about a storm that saw Pakistani batters clueless. Even a batter of Rizwan's stature was seen struggling against fiery and full-length deliveries from Mitchell Starc.

Rizwan managed to score just 1 run off 14 balls and was clean bowled by Mitchell Starc. The bowler angled the delivery in with pace which brought Rizwan forward. The ball was a ripper of a reverse swinging delivery which straightened past the outside edge and clipped the top of off-stump. This spell by Starc put Australia in front on day 3 of the match. 

Mohammad Rizwan gathered popularity for not making eye contact with a female interviewer, but this time around notched it up and failed to make eye contact with the lethal Starc delivery.
