Pakistan win the deciding One Day International (ODI) against Australia to take the ODI series 2-1, according to multiple outlets. In the final match, Australia are unable to prevent defeat, even with a defiant performance led by Inglis, which is noted by all sources. Pakistan’s chase succeeds comfortably, and they win by four wickets. The result leaves Australia losing the series after earlier results had tightened the contest to a final-decider. Across the reports, the central points are consistent: the match is the series-deciding ODI, Australia fail to secure a win, and Pakistan reach the target without using all their remaining wickets. The Brisbane Times and The Age echo the same phrasing and outcome as the Sydney Morning Herald, framing the loss as Australia’s inability to overturn Pakistan’s advantage in the series finale.
