Australia pulled off a sensational six-run victory over inexperienced Pakistan in the fourth one-day international on Saturday morning (NZ time) as centuries by debutant Abid Ali and Mohammad Rizwan went in vain. Ali hit 112 off 119 balls and Rizwan smashed 104 off 102 deliveries before Australia came back to restrict Pakistan to 271-8 and pick up their fourth straight win in the five-match series. Earlier, Glenn Maxwell got two chances before getting run out on 98, lifting Australia to 277-7 after Pakistan stand-in captain Imad Wasim won the toss and elected to field. (FILE PHOTO)Australia looked on the back foot for the first time in the series when Ali and Rizwan put up Pakistan's best third-wicket stand against Australia. ``They bowled beautifully," said Wasim, who led Pakistan after captain Shoaib Malik was ruled out due to bruised ribs before the match.
