Rauf's spell shook the Australian middle order, with four of his five batsmen being caught by wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan, who set a record for the most dismissals by a wicketkeeper in an ODI with six catches. Rizwan became the first wicketkeeper of Pakistan to take 6 wickets in a single match. However, before this, Sarfaraz Ahmed had also taken 6 catches against South Africa. Moeen Kham, Rashid Latif and Umar Akmal have achieved the feat of taking 5 catches each in a match.
Australia struggled from the start in this match, being all out for 163 runs with a spectacular score of 79-2. Steven Smith's 35 was the top score in a batting display that saw the world champions save the day, especially on a pitch that proved lethal late on. Despite the green cover of the grass, Pakistan's run chase later proved that the conditions were not as challenging as the Australians had made them appear. Saeem Ayub and Abdullah Shafiq provided a solid base for Pakistan while chasing a modest target. After a slow start, Ayub opened the chase with a series of brilliant strokes.
After a brilliant opening partnership of 137 runs, Saim Ayub returned to the pavilion after being caught at third man. Shafiq completed his half-century in 57 balls by hitting Zampa for a six. Pakistan won, with former captain Babar Azam achieving the target in spectacular style by hitting Zampa for a six. This is Pakistan's first win against Australia in Australia after 2854 days. His last victory was on 15 January 2017.
