HANSCOMB, RENSHAW PUT PAKISTAN TO THE SWORD skynewssport.com.au

Peter Handscomb has piled further misery on Pakistan, posting the second ton of his short Test career as Australia declared at 8-538 on day two of the SCG clash.

Steve Smith put the tourists out of their misery late in Wednesday’s second session, his side having dominated the contest since David Warner’s pre-lunch century on day one.

The wicket of Mitchell Starc, who clubbed two sixes before picking out Mohammad Rizwan in the deep, prompted the declaration in Sydney.
