After electing to bowl, Shaheen Afridi gave Pakistan a dream start against Australia in the ongoing second ODI at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. With Pakistan aiming to level the series after Australia won the first ODI, Shaheen dismissed Australia skipper Aaron Finch for a first-ball duck. Shaheen was probably trying to bowl a yorker but it turned out to be a full toss around middle and leg. He, however, still managed to get some movement on the ball as Finch completely missed his flick. As a result, the ball went on to hit Finch's front foot and umpire was quick to raise his finger.
Australia, after winning the three-match Test series 1-0, continued their impressive run in the ongoing tour of Pakistan.
