That's it from Canberra. Smith too good and Australia go 1-0 up. Both sides head to Perth for the final match of the series on Friday at Perth Stadium. On behalf of our team, hope you can join us then.

Presentation Babar Azam: "We are disappointed. Steve Smith took the match away. He played a magnificent innings. It's very difficult when we lose early wickets. We have to gain the momentum again. Credit goes to Iftikhar the way he played. It's a good knock."

Aaron Finch: "I thought we were pretty good all day. The way we kept taking wickets throughout the innings was really important because we know how damaging Pakistan can be in the powerplay or at the end so to get wickets consistently I think was the key to the day. We've got guys like Steve, who does what he does better than anyone else in the world."

Steve Smith is the Player of the Match: "It was nice to be there at the end and get the boys home. I thought the bowlers set it up early. It was probably a 170 wicket I reckon at least. They bowled beautifully. Then it was just about timing the run and fortunately I was able to do that tonight."

Australia win by seven wickets with nine balls to spare. That was a clinic from Steve Smith. That's why he's in this team. Nervy chases when they lose early wickets are his bread and butter. He took control and picked Pakistan apart. He didn't get much help but he didn't need it. Pakistan lost this with the bat in reality as 150 was nowhere near enough. Amir and Irfan caused some trouble early getting Warner and Finch but they couldn't stop Smith.

Tridib: "I am almost certain Steve Smith isn't human."

Hamza: "My God, Smith has been unstoppable this year, what has he been eating? The difference between the two teams today was Smith and Smith alone or else Pakistan could have defended this target "

ed: "Chris Martin will be ok so long as Steve Smith is at the other end"

DaMan: "This shows the value of guys like Root, Williamson and Smith in T20 where sometimes you don't need constant six hitters to win the game, someone who knows how to pace an innings. Not including Kohli because no one ever questions his place in a team, ever ;)"

Ahmar jami: "Turner is proving to be a Game 'Turner', but working against Australia" He's not fluent tonight, that's for sure
