BRISBANE, November 27. The Pakistani cricket captain, Hanif Mohammed, today scored an entertaining 95 against Queensland as his team made a bright start to its Australasian tour.

The Pakistanis, who arrived in Australia only yesterday, were all out for 284 in the first innings.

Doing their best to live up to their promise to play attractive cricket, the tourists had 122 runs on the board for the loss of three wickets at lunch, and 232 for five wickets at tea. John McKay was Queensland’s best bowler with five wickets for 56 runs off 13.6 overs.
