Watch: Australian captain Pat Cummins dismisses Babar Azam with a beauty at MCG | AUS vs PAK

During the first innings of the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Australia's captain Pat Cummins delivered a masterful performance by dismissing the former Pakistani captain, Babar Azam, with an exceptional delivery.

Cummins, showcasing his bowling prowess, managed to penetrate Babar's defence, catching him off-guard. The Pakistani batsman attempted to defend against a good length delivery but was outfoxed as the ball, seaming back in, slipped through the gap between his bat and pad, crashing into the stumps.

UNBELIEVABLE!
