  • Shakib Double Century Crushes New Zealand
    SPORTS SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 2017 Wade ton helps beat Pakistan in 1st ODI BRISBANE: Matthew Wade hit a thrilling last-ball centu- ry to set up a 92-run victory for Australia over Pakistan in the first one-day international at the Gabba yesterday. Wicketkeeper Wade boosted Australia to 268 for nine off their 50 overs after the batting top order had slumped to 78 for five. Seamer James Faulkner then took four wickets for 32 to help Australia dismiss Pakistan for 176 off 42.4 overs. Pakistan were well placed with Australia five down in the 17th over before Wade and Glenn Maxwell (60) put on 82 runs for the sixth wicket to push on. The tourists could not put any pressure on the Australians in their innings with skipper Azhar Ali injuring a hamstring and Babar Azam topscoring with 33. Mohammad Amir struck early with the key wickets of adventurous opener David Warner and skipper Steve Smith with successive balls to have Australian rocking at 13 for two in the fifth over. “It was challenging at the top, it was swinging and seaming around,” man-of-the-match Wade said. “Maxi (Maxwell) took the pressure off me, and I was just looking to get him on strike. I was absolutely cooked (by the last over). Wade, who has been under pressure to score runs after a lean spell, hit seven fours and two sixes in his knock for his first ODI century. Quirky best Maxwell was at his quirky best with reverse sweeps WELLINGTON: Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan waves to the crowd as he walks from the field after being bowled during and improvised stroke-making in his 60 off 56 balls with day two of the first international Test cricket match between New Zealand and Bangladesh at the Basin Reserve.
