Australia v Pakistan, 2nd Tri-Series ODI, at Sydney, 1981
Pitch: (5) - Normal pitch
Weather: (2) - Hot and Sunny
Pakistan won the toss and batted, and were immediately in trouble, Mohsin Khan top edging behind off Lillee off the first ball of the match for a duck.
Zaheer soon followed for a duck, again to Lillee, before Majid and Javed steadied the ship in a counterattacking stand of 120.
Majid Khan scored an excellent 116 with 19 boundaries, but the others had no answer to Lillee who claimed 5-40, and Pakistan were bowled out off the final ball for an eventually disappointing 227.
In reply the Australians were never trouble, with Greg Chappell and Graeme Wood adding 108 for the 1st wicket in quick time.
Though both were out for 50's, Allan Border carried his team home, with Trevor Chappell and Bruce Laird offering useful support.
The Pakistani bowlers lacked penetration, and now the Pakistanis find themselves winless after 2 games, though they were very unlucky to lose the 1st in a last ball finish.
Dennis Lillee was named man of the match for his 5-40, which held Pakistan to a below par total after Majid and Javed had threatened to post something much higher.
