Pat Cummins To The Rescue As Australia Grind Past Pakistan In Opening ODI

By AFP News November 04, 2024 • 17:04 PM View: 304

Skipper Pat Cummins kept his cool under pressure with a gritty unbeaten 32 to steer Australia to a nervy two wicket defeat of Pakistan in the first of three one-day internationals on Monday. Chasing 204, they reached the target with 99 balls to spare at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, surviving a huge scare when they lost three wickets in five balls.

"Wonderful match but it got a little tighter than I would have liked it there," said Cummins.
