You are right the innings of Pakistan was far better than the second innings. They lost because of poor batting otherwise they could have either draw the match if they had good lead. Pakistan bowling has not been as it was earlier. I am not sure taking action against the bowler will be the right thing to do who opted out of the test series.

This is not something new, Pakistan team is always having a whitewash at Australia. They are not able to manage pressure when playing at Australia. See they have good advantage in first innings but were not able to capitalise that advantage in second innings. Babar Azam who is backbone of Pakistan batting was not able to score even a fifty in his six innings, his highest score was 41. Players like Babar Azam need some break they are over hyped. 
From the beginning of Pakistan vs Australia test match, Pakistan team is performing very badly and Pakistan team is not able to get out of that bad performance. Pakistan's bowling line is very good but we understand their batting disaster against Australia very well. Pakistan batted brilliantly in the first innings of the third Test match. Great batting gave Australia a lead of 313 runs. Pakistan bowlers attacked Australia with a lead of 313 runs and Australia batsmen were all out for just 299 runs. If the Pakistan batsmen could bat in the second innings like the first innings in the third test, then Pakistan could have won the third test match. But as if Pakistan's bad luck is not leaving anything behind. Because of Pakistan's batting failure again in the second innings, Australia easily won the third test due to their batting failure. Pakistan batsmen must focus on batting otherwise they will not be able to perform very well in upcoming 2025 championship.
