Pakistan vs Australia, 2nd Test, Day 1 Highlights: Usman Khawaja's Unbeaten Century Puts Australia On Top

PAK vs AUS, 2nd Test, Highlights: Usman Khawaja's sublime hundred and a fine fifty from Steve Smith took Australia to 251 for 3 at stumps on Day 1 of  the second Test against Pakistan at the National Stadium in Karachi. Khawaja remained unbeaten on 127 while nightwatchman Nathan Lyon was batting on 0. Steve Smith, who looked set for three figures, got out for 72 at the stroke of stumps thanks to brilliant catch by Faheem Ashraf. Khawaja and David Warner had given Australia a bright start before Pakistan pegged back the visitors with two quick blows. Warner missed out on his fifty while Marnus Labuschagne was run-out on a duck. Earlier, Australia won the toss and elected to bat first. After the first Test ended in a dead-rubber, both teams will look to register a win ahead of the final Test in Lahore. Australia skipper Pat Cummins confirmed on the eve of the second Test that Queensland spinner Mitchell Swepson will make his Test debut in Karachi. He will replace Josh Hazlewood in the playing XI. (SCORECARD)
