Mitchell Starc snapped up 3-29 to help Australia take complete control against a tired Pakistan side on the third day of the second Test on Monday.
Pakistan, replying to Australia’s huge first-innings total of 556-9 declared, was bowled out for just 148 after having spent more than two days toiling in the field. Australia, touring Pakistan for the first time since 1998, then decided not to enforce the follow-on as it raced to 81-1 in 17 overs by the close — a lead of 489 runs.
Marnus Labuschagne was unbeaten on 37 and first-innings centurion Usman Khawaja was not out on 35.
