AUS vs PAK Day 2: Pakistan would have been in big trouble if their Number 9 hadn't put up a brilliant batting show but they are in a much better place. However, a third fifer from Pat Cummins in the consecutive third innings sets the tone of the Test Match on Day 1 and proceedings will now be on Day 2 where the weather conditions aren't looking that good.

Masood and Babar took charge then but Cummins managed to get rid of Babar and Saud Shakeel to the end of the first session. Rizwan and Salman combined their powers to make Pakistan bounce back.

Aamer Jamal got the job then to put Pakistan in a safer place when he scored 80-odd runs with Hamza at the other end. Pakistan posted 313 runs at the end and still time for one over was left. Warner was the batter to face the balls and he did it safely.
Now, Australia are trailing by 307 runs when they will enter the ground tomorrow morning. Down below is the AUS vs PAK Day 2 Weather Forecast and Pitch Report of Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney for the third Test:
