Australia’s dominant performance in the first day of The Third Test against Pakistan helped deliver Nine a significant audience boost on 2016’s new year test.

An average metro audience of 565,000 tuned in for the first session of the match to see David Warner become the first person to score a century in the opening session of a Test match in Australia.
