Australia's batters are trying to add to the team's massive lead before sending Pakistan in to try to survive the final two days of the second Test in Karachi.
It turned out to be a nightmare third day in the second Test match for the home side as Pakistan batters surrendered meekly against a relentless Australian fast bowling unit in Karachi on Monday. Pakistan were bundled out for 148 as their batters looked rattled in front of Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins. This happened after Australia declared for 556/9 in the first session of play and then had a go at the Pakistan batting line-up with the new ball. The batting side never really looked in control as they failed to deal with the skill and guile of left-arm pacer Starc early on.
Australia declared their first innings on 556 for nine and then skittled out Pakistan for 148 to seize control of the second Test in Karachi on Monday. After more than two days of leather-hunt under a harsh sun at the National Stadium, Pakistan's abject batting capitulation handed Australia a mammoth first innings lead of 408. The hosts were spared the ignominy of a follow-on but Australia's overall lead bulged to 489 as the touring side finished day three on 81-1.

Pakistan vs Australia, 2nd Test, Day 3 Live Score Updates: The Australian cricket team will aim to continue the good work done by the batters on Day 2 of the second Test which put them in a commanding position of 505/8 at Stumps. Usman Khawaja and Steve Smith laid down a perfect platform for their team to build upon as the middle-order also consolidated with important contributions. As far as the home team is concerned, the bowlers, especially the spinner will look to bundle out the Aussies and give their tired legs a rest. Sajid Khan and Nauman Ali have already bowled 99 overs combined in the first innings of the Test so far. (LIVE SCORECARD)
Wicketkeeper-batter Alex Carey missed his maiden century as Australia closed the second day on a big 505-8 against Pakistan in the second Test in Karachi on Sunday.
Wicketkeeper Alex Carey hoped cracks on the pitch would help spinners take 20 wickets after Australia piled up 505-8 on the second day of the second Test against Pakistan in Karachi on Sunday. The left-hander became Pakistan skipper Babar Azam's only second Test wicket as he missed the part-timer's straight delivery and was bowled for 93 with just two overs left before close. When stumps were drawn, Mitchell Starc was batting on 28 with touring skipper Pat Cummins yet to get off the mark after Usman Khawaja hit a memorable 160 in the country of his birth.
