Renowned Indian commentator Harsha Bhogle has backed Pakistan to win the ongoing third Test against Australia in Sydney.
Pakistan have performed poorly in Australia, losing 16 Tests on the trot with their last win in 1995.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, Bhogle also named Agha Salman and Aamer Jamal as the two Pakistan players who have impressed him the most during the three-match series.
By the time this story was filed, Australia were 252-5 in their first innings after dismissing Pakistan for 313.
Pakistan edged ahead of Australia after the visitors grabbed the prized wickets of Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne on the third day of the third Test in Sydney on Friday.
Smith and Labuschagne looked in good touch in the extended morning session before a stunning late double-wicket breakthrough.
Smith fell into a carefully laid Pakistani trap of stacking a trio of fielders around short extra cover off medium pacer Mir Hamza's bowling.
Smith duly walked down the wicket next ball to play an aerial drive, only to be caught by Babar Azam above his head.
Australia's premier batter made 38 off 86 balls and looked stunned as he glared at a patch in the pitch, before walking disconsolately from the ground 30 minutes before lunch.
He was followed six balls later by Labuschagne, bowled for 60 by offspinner Agha Salman.
Labuschagne played forward only to be beaten by a sharply turning ball out of the rough and spearing through the bat-pad gap to knock over his middle stump.
Australia clinched the series with a tense 79-run win in the second Test in Melbourne over Christmas.
