Australia overcame an improved Pakistan side at the MCG to win the Boxing Day Test on the eve of the fourth day’s play and gained crucial ICC World Test Championship points.

After being handed a heavy 360-run defeat in the first Test in Perth, Pakistan put up a much better showing in Melbourne. Yet, the Men in Green couldn’t avoid a 79-run loss to a rampant home side.

Australia are now up on the third place in the WTC points table, while Pakistan have slipped to the fifth place.

The winners of the 2023 edition of WTC have kicked off their home season in style and would be hoping to go one better at the New Year’s Test in Sydney.
