Scorecard:
Australia: 127-4
At the halfway mark Australia have reached 77 for three. Smith and Maxwell have quite some work to do.
Maxwell helps himself to a couple of boundaries in Afridi's third over, that costs Pakistan 13 runs.
Sami replaces Afridi (3-0-24-0) in the attack in the 13th over. He starts off with a wide. He's lacking in confidence today.
Even as we say this Smith his first legitimate delivery to the fence, helping Australia reach the 100-run mark. The over costs Pakistan 17 runs, Maxwell finishing it with a boundary and a six over long-on.
Imad Wasim strikes in his final over, having Maxwell (30) caught by Ahmed Shehzad at long-on.
Maxwell's 18-ball contribution was inclusive of three boundaries and a six, and he helped his captain add a valuable 62 runs (off 38 balls) for the fourth wicket.
