The trophy has been presented and the rest of the victorious team gather around their captain for the photos. Australia's home season has started poorly, but they'll hope to do better when the two teams meet each other in a 3-match T20I series, starting at the Gabba, on Thursday. The hosts will be once again without their top guns, but can they do better in the shortest format of the game? Join us for all the coverage, for now, cheers and bye..
Mohammad Rizwan | Pakistan captain - Special moment for me, the nation will be very happy today, we didn't perform as per expectations in the last couple of years. I'm the captain only for the toss and presentations - everyone gives me suggestions on the field, the batting group and the bowling group. All the credit to the bowlers, Australia in Australia isn't easy, the conditions suit their style of playing, but the bowlers were outstanding. Also credit to the two openers, they made the chases easy. They (fans) don't care a lot about the results, but the people back home are always behind us and I want to dedicate this victory to them.
Josh Inglis | Australia captain - Pretty disappointing to be honest, I think after the first three quarters of the first game, we've been totally outplayed, the batters just didn't get the runs on the board in the last couple of games. Guys have their own way of batting, but it's important to put together runs, stay out there and take the innings deep, and get the results. It was nice to be captaining in front of my home fans here in Perth, but the result was a disappointment.
Haris Rauf | PotM and PotS: First of all, thanks to almighty?Allah, it means a lot, we've been struggling in the last couple of months, this series was very important to both Pakistan and the team. Thanks to all the fans who came here to support us, thanks to everyone?supporting us around the world. We had a lot of practice in the nets, we spoke to each other as a bowling group, the communication was good and that's very important. Maxi is a superstar, a legend, just try to dismiss him and I was lucky to dismiss him thrice in the series.
Pakistan players walk around towards the crowd as they do a lap of honor and they're received with plenty of joy and delight. They hadn't beaten Australia since long and this'll taste sweet. Rizwan's and Jason Gillespie's start as captain and coach respectively couldn't have been any better. Granted, Australia had one eye towards the upcoming Tests, but beating them in bastions like Adelaide and Perth takes some doing. On strips which encouraged pace and bounce, Shaheen, Naseem, Haris and Hasnain ripped apart the hosts batting twice and then their openers led the stroll towards victories. Australia hardly had a chance in these last two matches and that's a big statement to make.
16:54 Local Time, 08:54 GMT, 14:24 IST: Convincing wins at the Adelaide Oval and here in Perth has ensured a historic ODI series win for the visitors, a first since 2002. But as the Indians found a week ago, some records are there to be broken and Pakistan have beaten Australia in Australia after a span of 22 years (in bilaterals). They showed plenty of grit and determination despite losing at the MCG and rebounded with facile victories in the next two matches. As in Adelaide, it was the four-pronged pace attack that did all the damage today as well. Having been given first use of the spicy strip, they sliced through a weak Australian batting line-up with ridiculous ease to skittle the hosts out for 140. And once again like the last game, the openers - Saim Ayub and Abdullah Shafique, did most of the heavy hitting in the modest chase as Pakistan cruised home with plenty of wickets and plenty of overs to spare. Having rested their first-choice players, Australia needed their second-string players to deliver and they failed to do so. The batting was abysmal in the face of a world-class attack, the bowling lacked the bite and the fielding was terrible. Truth to be told, there seemed to be just one team hungry for victory and that wasn't Australia. Pakistan deserve all the plaudits though as they continue their stirring comeback, first in Tests and now in the 50-over format. Presentations coming up shortly..
Zampa to Babar Azam, FOUR, there it is! Babar Azam comes down the track, hoists a full-toss over mid-on and he has both his arms up in air, he's joined in the celebrations by his skipper as both hug each other, Pakistan have beaten Australia and have a 2-1 series win. Only fitting that their two best batters were in the middle when the victory was achieved. Handshakes all around as the players walk back - Shaheen lifts Rizwan off the ground, he's followed by Naseem and then by Rauf - all the three pacers had a big say in delivering this series win
