Pakistan win warm-up

Akhtar should be fit for tri-series: Inzamam

AFP, Adelaide
Pakistan all-rounder Abdul Razzaq belted 89 runs from 61 balls to lift his team to a morale-boosting 13-run win over Australia A in their limited-overs match at the Adelaide Oval hereWednesday.
Razzaq smacked half a dozen sixes - including three off just six balls from off-spinner Nathan Hauritz-tostecrhisteamtovictory.
Pakistan reached 279 for eight before dismissing the Australians for 266in the49th over.
It was their first win over an Australian team on their current tour since beating a makeshift invitational side in a carnival match at Lilac Hill in Western Australia five weeksago.
Razzaq's splendid knock was backed by some impressive bowling from paccman NaveduJ Hasan who took three of the last five wickets as Pakistan claimed 6-12 in the last four overs, including two run outs.
Australia A had seemed set to cruise to victory after wicketkeeper and captain Brad Haddin gave them a brilliant chance with a flawless 129 from 123 balls.
In the 44th over the home side were coasting at 254 for four when Razzaq struck, trapping Dominic Thorncly lbw for 16. Naved then completed the rout, finising with3-42, whileRazzaqtook2-45frdm lOovers.
Razzaq said the win would be a huge morale boost for Pakistan in the lead-up to the tri-series international one-day matches against Australia and the West Indies which start in Melbourne on Friday.
Pakistan's first match is against Australia in Hobart on Sunday.
"The main thing is we won the
match," Razzaq said.
"We needed that because we lost theTest series, everybody was down, so I hope we will do better in the one-dayers."
Pakistan captain Inzamamul Haq
paid tribute to Razzaq, saying he was recovering from a mystery illness which had afflicted him throughout the team's tour of Australia.

"When he gets going it is very diffi-culttostophim."
Inzamam said the win was important after Pakistan’s poor form on tour and should be a big help leading into the one-dayers.
Haddin said Pakistan had shown they had some talented one-day players but predicted the tourists would still struggle against Australia.
The tourists, however, had another good news. Injured fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar should be fit for the tri-series, Inzamam said.
Speaking after the warm-up match, he said he was confident the world's fastest bowler would be able toplay.
And he said Shoaib was likely to get his eye in by playing in the first international 1\venty20 match to be staged in Australia, between Pakistan and Australia A in Adelaide onThursday.
1\venty20 matches allow for just 20 overs per side as opposed to the usual 50 overs in a normal limited-overs match.
"Hopefully he is playing tomor-row," Inzamam said. "He is fully better now and hopefully he is playing in the one-day series."
Shoaib suffered back and hamstring strains which have been treated with a series of pain-killing injections.
