During the first day of the second Test of the ongoing Australia’s tour of Pakistan in Karachi, Australia batter Marnus Labuschagne was involved in a run-out for the fourth time in his career. Co-incidentally, Labuschagne was the one who walked back to the pavilion on each occasion.
It all happened on the last delivery of the 21st over when Labuschagne played a Nauman Ali delivery to towards Sajid Khan at mid-off. Having called for a single, Labuschagne would be cursing himself for not being able to complete the run.
In what was a pretty close dismissal, Labuschagne would’ve survived had he dived. However, no such intent from the 27-year old player resulted in him getting out for 0 (9).
With Australia losing opening batter David Warner (36) a few overs ago, Labuschagne’s wicket further reduced the impact of a 82-run partnership between Warner and Usman Khawaja (52*).
Khawaja, 35, completed a 16th Test half-century by hitting a boundary off Pakistan all-rounder Faheem Ashraf in the 20th over. Set to resume batting alongside vice-captain Steven Smith in the afternoon session, the visitors would be hoping for their two senior batters to take them to a formidable first innings total after captain Pat Cummins won the toss and chose to bat at the National Stadium today.
