In the first ODI of the series between Australia and Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Pat Cummins led his team’s bowling attack with a stunning short ball that dismissed Pakistan’s Kamran Ghulam. The Australian captain delivered an unplayable bouncer that left the debutant struggling to fend it off. Cummins’ sharp bowling marked a crucial moment in the match, which took place on Monday, November 4.

The dismissal came on the last ball of the 19th over, with Cummins setting up the field for a short delivery. Executing his plan perfectly, he bowled a fierce bouncer aimed at Kamran’s head. Trying to evade the high-speed ball, Kamran jumped back, but the delivery brushed his gloves and found its way straight to wicketkeeper Josh Inglis, who made no mistake in securing the catch.

A Tough Start for Kamran Ghulam

Kamran’s debut turned out to be challenging as he managed to score only 5 runs off six balls, including one boundary. His short stay at the crease left Pakistan in a difficult spot at 70 for four after 19 overs, with the team struggling to build a stable partnership. The 29-year-old batter had previously made headlines by scoring a century in his Test debut against England, where he stepped in for former captain Babar Azam. However, this ODI start was not as favorable for him.

Pakistan Bowled Out for 203

Australia’s bowlers maintained control throughout the innings, with Mitchell Starc leading the attack by claiming three wickets. Adam Zampa and Cummins supported him effectively, each taking two wickets, which helped Australia restrict Pakistan to a total of 203 runs in 46.4 overs.

Cummins’ bouncer exemplified Australia’s aggressive bowling strategy, which put Pakistan under pressure early in the innings. His well-timed short ball not only demonstrated his skill but also highlighted his effective use of field placements and bowling variations as a captain.
