6.45pm That's an excellent fightback from Australia after Pakistan put on 126 in 25 overs for the opening stand. The platform had been laid but the middle and lower order dismantled it completely, unable to hit boundaries or rotate the strike. Only one of the five regular bowlers conceded at over 4.50 an over and Pakistan will by highly disappointed to score only 215 after that start. Join us again in 30 minutes for the chase

Richardson to Mohammad Irfan, OUT, Irfan has been beaten twice and he's run out! The slow leg cutter beat him after pitching outside off first as he tried to poke, Fawad wanted the strike but Irfan realised it too late. Haddin passed on the ball to Richardson who was near the middle of the pitch and took a couple of steps before knocking over the stumps as if Irfan was on another planet
Mohammad Irfan run out 0 (5m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0
Vinay: "Sorry for my ignorant question. But is this the first day/night test match propagated by ICC?" Apology accepted

Faulkner to Fawad Alam, no run, he makes room for the ball cutting in, and guess what - he can't clear point
