Australia 157 for five

NOTTINGHAM, JUNE 19. Australia made 157 for five in 23 overs while chasing Pakistan's 290 for nine in the triangular tournament day/night one-day international against Australia here at Trent Bridge today.

Saeed Anwar (34), Elahi (79), Razzaq (5), Youhanna (44) and Younis (23) and Akram (28 not out) were the main run-getters.

Pakistan made two changes from the team that was on the verge of beating England at Headingley last week before a pitch invasion stopped play. All-rounder Wasim Akram returned from a shoulder injury in place of fast bowler Fazal-E-Akbar while Faisal Iqbal was brought in for rested batsman Inzamam-ul- Haq.

Australia stuck with the side that would have played Pakistan in the washed-out game at Durham on Saturday with batsman Ricky Ponting and fast bowler glenn Mcgrath both rested.
