    1st ODI: Cummins Cameo Snatch Victory From Pakistan In Series Opener

    Melbourne Cricket Ground: Pat Cummins' 32 not out off 31 balls enabled Australia to clinch a thrilling two-wicket win over Pakistan in the first ODI at Melbourne Cricket Ground on Monday.

    Chasing 204, Australia were in a spot of bother after being reduced to 155/7 in 25.1 overs but Sean Abbott and Cummins stitched a crucial 30-run partnership before the former was run out on 13 in the 30th over. However, Mitchell Starc and Cummins made sure that Australia finished over the line in fashion in the 34th over. Starc remained unbeaten on two off 12 balls while Cummins' innings included four fours.

    Earlier, Australia won the toss and invited visitors to bat first. Pakistan had a troubled start with both openers Saim Ayub (1) and Abdullah Shafique (12) faltering cheaply against Starc in the powerplay overs. Babar Azam and captain Mohammad Rizwan added a 39-run stand to give some respite to the scoreboard. However, the partnership was broken by Adam Zampa in the 18th over with the wicket of Babar (37).
