New Delhi: In the ongoing Test match between Australia and Pakistan at Sydney, the Down Under all rounder Mitchell Marsh caught the attention of cricket fans over claiming Pakistan skipper Shan Masood’s wicket and then the subsequent drama unfolding over it.

Aus Vs Pak, Third Test in Sydney The third test between rival teams started early today. Pak skipper won the toss and chose to bat first at Sydney cricket ground.
However, its batting line up collapsed and failed to put up challenge against the hosts. Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood sent Pakistani openers packing with their piercive bowling and dimissed Abdullah Shafique & Saim Ayub in the first 2 overs. None of subsequent Pakistani players could stay on the pitch to consolidate the innings, except Babar Azam.
He played some super cover drives, raising hopes of Pakistani fans but lost his wicket at a meagre 26 runs. As per latest updates, Pakistan has managed to cross 250 runs mark on back of half centuries from Mohammad Rizwan & Salman Ali Agha. The visitors are nine wickets down, as no player from the squad could sustain the innings.
For the uninitiated, Australia is already the winner of three match series as it vanquished Pakistan in both test matches..
