Australia are gearing up to host Pakistan for a six-match 🀅white-ball series, kicking off with a three-game ODI leg starting Monday, November 4.
The series mark the first encounter between Australia and Pakistan in🐷 the ODI format since their clash at the 2023 ODI World Cup. In that memorable encounter in Bengaluru, Australia emerged victorious by 62 runs, thanks to a record-breaking 259-run opening partnership between David Warner and Mitchell Marsh. That powerful display set the tone for the World Champions, and they wi𒁃ll aim to replicate that dominance on home soil.
Australia, known for their strength in both the batting and bowling departments, have announced a well-balanced squad for the series. Captain Pat Cummins, making his ODI return after the World Cup, will lead the side, bringing experience and tactical acumen to the lineup. With other key players like Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Starc in the mix, Au🦋stralia’ꩲs squad is packed with talent and depth.
On the other side, Pakistan have arrived with a squad rich in both emerging and established talent. Mohammad Rizwan will lead the Green Team for the first time after the resignation of Babar Azam. Known for their dynamic bowling attack, Pakistan’s fast bowlers are expected to thrive in Australian conditions, where pace and bounce are often decisive factors. The tour also provides an opportunity for Pakistan’s batting lineup to test themselves against Australia’s formidable bowling.
