What's the story

Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh missed out on his maiden Test century against Pakistan.

He scored 96 in the third innings of the ongoing Boxing Day Test in Melbourne.

The dasher played with remarkable intent and scored 96 off 130 balls (13 fours).

Notably, he returned with twin half-centuries in the series opener in Perth.

Here we look at his stellar stats.

A fine knock from Marsh

Australia were reeling at 16/4 in their second innings when Marsh arrived in the middle.

He joined forces with Steve Smith and the duo bailed the team out of trouble with a 153-run stand.

Marsh was the aggressor in the partnership as he gave a tough time to the likes of Aamer Jamal and Shaheen Afridi.

He eventually fell to Mir Hamza.
