Pakistan staged a commanding performance in Perth, clinching their first ODI series win in Australia since 2002 with an emphatic eight-wicket victory. The hosts, opting to rest key players for upcoming tests against India, struggled against the visiting bowlers.

Fast bowlers Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah spearheaded Pakistan's attack, dismantling Australia's lineup with impressive swing and pace. Australia's choice to rest top players highlighted the waning importance of the 50-over format.

Despite a spirited effort from Aussie captain Josh Inglis, Pakistan efficiently chased down the target in just under 27 overs. The win sets the stage for Pakistan as they prepare for the T20 series in Brisbane.
