Pakistan is mocking their criket fans by these consecutive defeats against Aussies. They already lost the series and in the fourth ODI, Australia defeated Pakistan by a huge margin of 135 runs. Australia scored a formidable target of 277/8 in the stipulated 50 overs.
Michael Hussey(67 runs) and their spin wizard Nathan Hauritz(53 runs from 39 balls) helped Aussies to achieve this total.Mohammad Asif took 3 wickets and saeed ajmal claimed two.
In reply, Pakistan lost their four top order batsmen(Kamran akmal,
Younis Khan, Salman Butt and Mohammad Yousuf) after scoring just 39 runs on the board. Like earlier matches, Shahid Afridi exploded and scored 29 runs (10balls, 3 fours and 2 sixes). But he looks like playing for the captaincy feather, not for a pak win. So the result was the same.
Ryan Harris won the Man of the match for his match winning figures of 5/19, his 2nd consecutive 5-wicket haul in this series.
