Australia v Pakistan, Melbourne Day 3: What a day of Test cricket. Pakistan scrapped and clawed in the first session with the bat, then started with a glorious burst of left-arm fast bowling. Swing, seam, stumps ascatter. From on the ropes, Steve Smith absorbed and Mitch Marsh counterpunched. Then they fell. Three days of fine fast bowling and conditions doing plenty, and this game is still on the table for either side.
