Australia dismantled Pakistan on a challenging Perth pitch earlier this week, securing a resounding 360-run victory in the first Test within four days. The home team had set a formidable 450-run target for Shan Masood-led Pakistan. Younis stated that it was “painful” watching the Pakistan side play during the opening Test in Perth. There's no real pace, people used to come and watch Pakistan pacers clicking 150kph, but that's not what we see right now. Naseem Shah remains absent from Pakistan's pace attack owing to a shoulder injury, while Haris Rauf also withdrew from the squad due to workload management.
