Pakistan triumphed over Australia by a margin of 90 runs to secure the series.

Australia's last batsman Matthew Kuneman was caught at first slip by Usman Tariq, and Salman Agha, who was standing there, collected the ball in his fist with great ease. This moment of the end is like a symbolic picture of the entire match and series.

Pakistan won a big victory by 90 runs by wrapping up Australia, who were chasing, for 108 runs. Batsman Salman did a great job of building a big capital with his stormy batting in this victory. Pakistan also won the series with the match. Captain Salman won the series against Australia after a long 7 years.

Pakistan, who won the first T20 of the series by 22 runs, batted first today and scored 198 for 5 wickets. Despite losing the wicket of Sahibzada Farhan at the beginning, Salman focused on aggressive batting with Saim Ayub.

The 50 runs added in just 21 balls in the second wicket partnership between the two. Even after Syme was dismissed for 23 off 11 balls with 4 fours, Salman continued to bat. The Pakistan captain reached fifty on 25 balls.

When Salman returned after being caught by Sean Abbott in the 13th over, he scored 76 off 40 balls, including 8 fours and 4 sixes.

After defeating Salman for 125 runs, Usman Khan took Pakistan ahead the rest of the way. His unbeaten innings of 53 off 36 balls and Shadab Khan's 28 off 20 balls took Pakistan's score close to two hundred.

Australia were never at ease in the chase. After the opening pair of Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh scored 22 runs, both returned with two consecutive balls.

After that, except for Cameron Green, who fell for three, and Matthew Short, who fell for seven, no one else could survive even ten balls. Green scored 35 off 20 balls and Short scored 27 runs off 23 balls. For Pakistan, leg-spinners Abrar Ahmed and Shadab took three wickets each, Usman Tariq took two, and Mohammad Nawaz and Sim took one each. This is the first time in T20 Internationals that Pakistani spinners have taken all the wickets in a match.

Pakistan had previously won the series against Australia in October 2018. Pakistan was led by Sarfaraz Ahmed in the series in the United Arab Emirates. The two teams played three bilateral series in between.

Brief scores:

Pakistan: 198/5 in 20 overs (Salman 76, Usman 53, Shadab 28*, Sim 23; Zampa 1/27, Connolly 1/30). Australia: 108 in 15.4 overs (Green 35, Short 27; Abrar 3/14, Shadab 3/26, Tariq 2/16). Result: Pakistan won by 90 runs. Man of the Match: Salman Agha.
