The Australian Kookaburras have defeated Pakistan 5-1 in their third match of the 2011 Azlan Shah Cup in Malaysia.

NSWIS athlete Simon Orchard opened scoring for the Australians in the 23rd minute before Pakistan levelled only five minutes later. Another Australian goal in the 34th minute had the Kookaburras 2-1 up at half time.

The second half was played out in a similar fashion to the first with the Kookaburras dominating for the majority. Another goal from Orchard and two more from his teammates sealed the 5-1 victory.

The Kookaburras now sit in second place behind Great Britain, and will play Wednesday against Korea.
