Mentions that this way was a pretty nice wicket for the bowlers up top and despite Babar Azam playing so nicely, they came back strong.

Marcus Stoinis is adjudged the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his blistering half-century. He says that he is happy with scoring runs on this good wicket and pleased with the win. Adds that it was good hitting against Rauf who is one of the best bowlers in the whole series and is happy that he was able to score those sixes against him.

The presentation ceremony...

Earlier in the day, the stand-in skipper for Pakistan, Salman Agha opted to bat first on a cold evening in Hobart but this move backfired. Babar Azam was prolific at the top and Usman Khan showed promise too but the visitors just kept losing wickets. The Aussie bowlers were a bit sluggish to begin with but soon got into the groove and broke the back of that middle order in the middle phase of the innings. Aaron Hardie was the chief architect as he picked up a career-best 3 for 21 and the Aussies managed to bundle out Pakistan for just 117. In reply, the Aussie openers failed to impress once again but the middle order came good and they galloped to victory.

Pakistan didn't bowl badly even though the scorecard reflects differently, it's just that they had a very under-par total on the board and towards the end, they were just taken down by The Hulk. Shaheen Afridi got the first breakthrough after which, Jahandad Khan built on an impressive start and picked up his maiden T20I wicket as well. However, in the middle overs, they couldn't get the wickets and were soon blown away in just 11.2 overs as the likes of Haris Rauf and Shaheen Afridi were smoked to all parts of the ground.

Needing 118 runs for the win on a deck that demanded at least 150-160 runs, Australia didn't quite begin well as they lost Matthew Short in the 3rd over and then Jake Fraser-McGurk too fell inside the Powerplay as he tried to muscle his way out. After that though, Josh Inglis and Marcus Stoinis put on a partnership and whilst Inglis played a few lovely strokes, it was Stonis who took on Haris Rauf in one over and killed the game. Stoinis didn't leave it there as he piled on more misery on the Pakistani pacers and finished the game with an unbeaten 61 off just 27 balls.

What a way to clean-sweep the series from Australia! They have been dominant in this final game against a hapless Pakistan side and do take revenge for that shock ODI series defeat.
