Hello and welcome to the third day of the second Test match between Pakistan and Australia. Pakistan are in a strong position and will look to bowl Australia out today. Australia trail by 548 runs and if they want to survive, they need to bat the whole day. They have a strong batting line up, however, unlike the first Test they need to survive.

Day 3, Session 1...

Pakistan are completely in the ascendency here. They have kept Australia on the field for nearly two days now and have ensured that even if they do not win this match, they won't be losing it either. The day certainly belonged to Younus Khan who notched up his 5th double century. Not to forget hundreds from Azhar Ali and Misbah-ul-Haq. The plan was to wear the Aussies down and that has worked wonders for them. Australia had to see off a tricky period in the dying minutes of the day but they could not see it through without any damage. Chris Rogers was snapped up by Imran Khan and that has firmly put Pakistan in command. They will be calling the shots now. Can the Aussies somehow show some stomach to fight back? Tomorrow is a crucial day. Do join us for that. Till them it's goodbye from us.

The umpires have decided that the light isn't good enough for them to continue. They have decided that will be STUMPS ON DAY 2!
