David Warner launched his Test cricket swansong with a belligerent century on day one to dominate an inexperienced Pakistan attack as Australia gained an early stranglehold of the series-opener at Optus Stadium. Warner arrived at his 26th Test ton late in the second meeting with an upper slice to the limit to set off his brand name jumping festivity. He had come into the coordinate on the rear of a new open disagreement with previous colleague and took on nearby Mitchell Johnson, who was at the ground. Warner's structure at Test level had for quite some time been addressed having recently scored only one 100 years throughout the course of recent years. Yet, the confidence imparted in Warner, who intends to resign from Test cricket toward the finish of the series, has paid off as he passed Matthew Hayden and Michael Clarke to move into fifth put on Australia's run scoring list. Warner has now scored six Test hundreds of years against Pakistan with a normal of right around 90. His splendid 164 off 211 balls finished late in the day when he surrendered to a short-ball strategy from debutant fast Aamer Jamal. Mitchell Bog and Alex Carey endure the second new ball and will hope to commute home Australia's benefit on day two. Pakistan's possibilities finishing a 14-Test long string of failures in Australia look currently sad after the first day of the season of the three-match series. It was an extreme beginning for new skipper Shan Masood, whose good faith heading into the series immediately dissolved after a worn out execution from his group in the field. Bob and speed was clear on a surface with a sprinkling of grass covering as incidental conveyances raised. However, Pakistan's quicks didn't bowl predictably on a length and there were excesses of full conveyances which were treated with scorn from Warner. Pakistan's order are as of now confronting question marks after not choosing an expert spinner and picking debutant quicks Jamal and Khurram Shahzad in front of veteran Hasan Ali. However, Shahzad legitimized his choice with a noteworthy spell after lunch, where he made the ball jag around and bowled firmly.

Jamal, nonetheless, was delinquent yet finished as Pakistan's just numerous wicket-taker having likewise guaranteed Travis Head who was gotten at fly slip on 40 in a very much worked plan. A large part of the weight fell on initiate Shaheen Shah Afridi, who bowled 13 of Pakistan's initial 32 overs. He was unfortunate early and poked 140kph, however blundered with his exactness on occasion and his main wicket was opener Usman Khawaja for 41. Afridi, who wrapped up with 1 for 75 off 19 overs, couldn't inconvenience Warner in every case and experienced the shame of being trucked for a phenomenal scoop went for six not long before lunch. Warner has ruled Australia's innings such a long ways with no other hitter changing over begins. He justified Pat Cummins' choice to bat first on a hard surface which has given a help to the quicks. Warner crushed 72 runs in a prevailing first meeting close by Khawaja as they delivered Australia's first century opening organization in quite a while in 26 innings. They scored uninhibitedly yet additionally needed to endure an initial six-over burst from Afridi on a surface more energetic than during last year's terrible relating Test among Australia and West Indies. Khawaja took on a supporting role and was dropped on 21 by Abdullah Shafique running back from the slips. He came into the match under the spotlight after not being permitted to wear shoes which communicated philanthropic perspectives, yet wore a dark armband. Khawaja surrendered to a Pakistan fightback after lunch, however Warner's heroics put Australia in firm control. An original capacity Australia went in true to form with Swamp holding his spot over Western Australia partner Cameron Green. Bleeding edge spinner Nathan Lyon makes his return from the calf injury that cut off his Remains crusade. He should hold on to bowl with Lyon four away from his 500th Test wicket. There had been a major showcasing effort in front of the Test in the wake of disappointing group numbers in the past three Tests played at the 60,000 limit Optus Arena. The group consistently worked to 16,259 fans for the fourth Test coordinate played at Optus Arena with the recently introduced three-layered slope - meaning to mirror the WACA's popular grass banks - topping off in the midst of expanded conceal as the day wore on. They would have been happy with what they saw as Australia expectedly acquired control.
