The in-question Karachi pitch suddenly became unplayable when Mitchell Starc found his rhythm on day 3 of the 2nd test match between Australia and Pakistan. 

Where Australia was batting like a dream and had to declare the inning on 556/9 after playing out 189 overs, Pakistan had a nightmare, triggered by Mitchell Starc's pace and swing. 

On the fourth ball of the 26th over, Starc got Azhar Ali out in slips. It was a full and wide delivery that drew Ali to drive the ball but got the edge that went straight to the second slip. 

On the next ball, Fawad Alam finally had the opportunity to bat in this series. He waited seven days to finally take guard but was facing a charged-up Mitchell Starc. On the very first ball, Starc got the ball to reverse late into Alam, who was late to put the bat on the ball and was adjudged LBW.
