Starc holes out. Oz still have not batted out 50 overs in this tournament. (Well, once Zampa got out on the final ball.)

Oz 307 (49).
Amir 5/30 (10).

Odds at change of innings:
Oz 66%, Pakistan 34%.

Pakistan's 1/2 (2.1) became 2/56 (10.5).

cricinfo's forecasted win percentage went from 44% to 36% with that wicket.

Odds in the 15th over: Oz 72%, Pakistan 28%.

Pakistan 2/74 (15).

Cummins bowls a very bad ball short down the legside and gets very lucky with a wicket.

3/136 (25.1).

Odds: Oz 59%, Pakistan 41%.

Finch brings himself on to bowl. :shock:

Looks like Carey missed a stumping! The ball bobbed up from his gloves.

Finch bowls an every worse ball than Cummins (much, much worse), and Hafeez holes out! He should have hit that slow full toss for 6. :shock:

Pakistan 4/146 (27). Pakistan are throwing this game away.

Odds: Oz 75%, Pakistan 25%.

Another wicket. This one is a good ball for a change. Inside edge well taken by Carey.

That's now 3 wickets in 15 balls.

5/147 (27.3).

Odds: Oz 84%, Pakistan 16%.

Oz will most likely win now, but no one should be fooled into thinking there aren't problems to fix, in both batting, which collapses constantly, and bowling, where the 4th and 5th bowlers can be targeted.

One over from Finch was comic relief. Two is jerking the chain.

Maybe he was encouraged by his bowling against Pakistan in the UAE series.

And now Richardson has one. Very surprising. Pakistan is making the Australian middle order look solid.

Pakistan are doing an Oz-style collapse. Richardson induces a caught behind.
Pakistan may not last 50 overs either. Modern batsmen have no defensive technique.

6/160 (30).

Odds: Oz 95%, Pakistan 5%.

If they take another wicket soon, Oz should seriously think about giving Smith a bowl too. The bowling lacks depth, so in close games it may need backup.

If only Australia had a wicketkeeper, Maxwell might have had a 7th there, caught behind.
