Australia have turned the tables on Pakistan, battling their way to victory on a difficult track at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium to level the ODI series one-apiece with one to play.
On a surface catered for spinners seamer Nathan Ellis was the star, returning 4-33 in his nine overs with some key wickets.
In the absence of Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Mitch Starc Ellis stepped up to lead the attack superbly.
With stand-in captain Josh Inglis and Cam Green both making half-centuries the makeshift Australian XI set Pakistan a challenging 232 to win.
The home side rarely looked like getting close as they were bowled out for 190 to give the tourists a 41-run victory.
Pakistan had won the opening game by five wickets at Rawalpindi, where left-arm spinner Arafat Minhas took 5-32 on his ODI debut, after which Pakistan's Kiwi coach Mike Hesson knocked back criticism of preparing spin-friendly wickets.
