Asif, Sami destroy Aus in Sydney Test

Pakistan had Australia on the hop on Day One of the second cricket Test on Sunday afternoon. Mohd Sami and Mohd Asif rocked Australia who were 51 for six in the post lunch session with three wickets apiece.


Mohd Asif, who has had to endure some turbulent times recently, has made a splendid comeback to international cricket. He came close to achieving a hat-trick today. Earlier in the day, Ricky Ponting won the toss and decided to bat on a grassy pitch.


What followed was unbelievable as Sami claimed the first three wickets with very little on the board. Ponting got a first ball duck after playing the hook shot. Opening batsmen Phil Hughes [0] and Shane Watson [6] flopped too.


Watching Sami, Asif got inspired to claim Michael Clarke [3], Mike Hussey [28] and Marcus North [10]. The first morning saw Australia profit from two decision referrals.
