AUS vs PAK: Pakistan reeling at 39/3 in 2nd innings after being asked to follow-on on Day 3

Babar Azam, who is considered the best batsman of Pakistan at the moment, failed to lift his team's performance and went back for a paltry score of 8.
Joining Babar Azam, Yasir Shah shared a partnership of 105 runs keeping Pakistan's slim hopes alive to avoid the follow-on.
With this innings, David Warner also became the seventh cricketer from his country to reach the triple-figure mark in red-ball cricket.
David Warner played an unbeaten knock of 335 off 418 balls, which is the second-highest score in a Test innings by an Australian batsman.
While David Warner looked well and truly capable of scoring 400, his journey was cut short when Australian skipper Tim Paine decided to declare the innings.
Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar launched a scathing attack on Pakistan bowlers after they failed to lift up their performance in the second Test as well.
The unbeaten 335 of David Warner has also become the second-highest individual score among his countrymen in red-ball cricket.
Steve Smith achieved the landmark in his 126th innings, surpassing the 73-year-old record of England's Wally Hammond who had taken 131 innings.
Both Warner and Labuschagne looked in destructive form as they made sure that the Pakistan bowlers paid for bowling a poor line and length.
Yasir Shah has been a nightmare for him ever since Steve Smith began his ascent towards becoming one of the best Test batsmen of current times.
