Australia have thrashed Pakistan in the third and final T20 International at Perth to seal the series 2-0.

Batting first, the tourists were restricted to just 106 for 8 in their allotted 20 overs.

In reply Australia's openers David Warner and Aaron Finch were on fire as they chased down the target in under a dozen overs to lead their side to an emphatic ten wicket win.

The two sides will now play a two Test match series which gets underway at Brisbane on November 21.
