Scorer: @Thilak_Rama | Commentator: Sreshth Shah

11.10pm So a poor finish to a disappointing tour for Australia. For Sarfraz, this is the right tonic after a slew of poor captaincy decisions cast doubts over his authority over the side in the lead-up to the tour. He responded with two superb knocks in the second Test as Pakistan won the Tests, and then didn't put foot wrong in the three T20Is that followed. Australia, for all their talk of change in culture, haven't changed their approach towards spin. Diffidence, uncertainty, over-aggression at times, and even complete lack of trust in their own game has left a lot to be desired. They have plenty of work to do if they are to compete in these parts of the world. For now, they'll board the long flight home without a win on tour. On that note, this is Shashank and Sreshth signing out on behalf of Thilak. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. Until next time, it's goodbye from us here. Cheers

Presentations:

Babar Azam is the Player of the Series. He finished with scores of 68, 45* and 50. "I don't get satisfied if I've performed in one match. My role is that of an anchor, who has to bat through. I try to do that."

Shadab Khan is the Player of the Match for his three-wicket haul. "Didn't try to do something extra, that was the key," he says. "There was lot more grip in the previous game, today the ball was skidding through. I bowl according to situations."

Sarfraz Ahmed: Boys have worked hard in all facets, the result is just the reward. Whoever has got an opportunity has done well. We wanted to carry forward the momentum to the New Zealand series, the way we bowled and took our catches was superb tonight.

Aaron Finch: We had our chances in all three games. Chasing under 150, you back your batsmen to get the side over the line. Our bowling was very impressive all series, keeping them to below 150 was great. We're looking forward to a tough series against South Africa.

Alex Carey took 20 off the first over. But one wicket is all it took for Pakistan to pop open the game as the spinners took over and applied the choke clinically. For now, it's a well-earned break for Pakistan, a very short one, before New Zealand come calling. The first of three T20Is starts in Abu Dhabi on October 31.

Statistician Mazher Arshad tweets: "Six of Australia's eight lowest totals in T20Is have come against Pakistan."

Hasan Ali to Zampa, OUT, Pakistan win 3-0! The 30th time they've bowled an opposition out in T20Is! Full on off, and he tried to muscle it over long off. No power behind that shot and the hosts are delighted

Usman Shinwari to Lyon, 2 runs, full on off, and he swings across the line to long on. Shoaib throws from the deep, and Lyon could be run-out, but the ball has hit his body. No appeal for obstruction because the batsman did not alter his running path

Arham: "Babar Azam is the MoS for me. Set up the game in all 3 matches. Imad had a slight off day today"

Attique005: "Best of Luck Ausses for next time in UAE, May be conditions not befitting their players."

Usman Shinwari to Lyon, 2 runs, full on off, and swung across the line over midwicket. Babar gives it a chase, and pulls it back before the duo can consider a third
