Harare, July 2 (TNS): Billy Stanlake ripped through Pakistan\u2019s top order to help Australia down the No 1-ranked side by nine wickets in the second match of the Zimbabwe T20I tri-series.<\/p>\n
Stanlake took a wicket in each of his first four overs to set them back at 24-4. This set the tone for Australia, as he sealed off an amazing career-best 4-8 against the world\u2019s No1 ranked T20I team in Harare.<\/p>\n
Mohammad Hafeez, Fakhar Zaman, Hussain Talat and skipper Sarfraz Ahmed all fell victim to the 23-year-old paceman before a Shoaib Malik\u2019s run-out set Pakistan further back at 47-5 midway through the 10th over.<\/p>\n
Marcus Stoinis went on to remove Asif Ali (22) and Jhye Richardson removed Faheem Ashraf for 21 as their innings started to wither. A late cameo from Shadab Khan (29 off 25 balls) edged Pakistan past the 100-run mark before Andrew Tye\u2019s triple strike in the final over skittled Pakistan out for 116.<\/p>\n
Australia\u2019s chase was effortless. Beside\u2019s Hasan Ali taking out D\u2019Arcy Short, captain Aaron Finch led the Australia charge smashing six sixes and four fours for his 33 ball-66. He was helped by Travis Head (20 off 18 balls) to claim a nine-wicket win with 55 balls remaining.<\/p>\n
