Pakistan vs Australia 3rd T20I
Australia has already sealed the T20I series with a 2-0 lead following a hard-fought 13-run victory in the second match at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Now, the focus shifts to the third and final game of Pakistan’s tour of Australia, a dead rubber in terms of the series outcome but an opportunity for both teams to leave a lasting impression.
For Pakistan, this match is about salvaging pride. Their bowling unit has been commendable throughout the tour, delivering consistent performances across formats. However, the same cannot be said about their batting, particularly the top order.
With nothing to lose, Pakistan may consider tweaking their batting order or even giving opportunities to bench players to test their depth.
With the series in the bag, Australia might rest some key players to test their bench strength, giving others an opportunity to shine ahead of more packed international fixtures.
The match will begin at 1pm PKT at the Bellerive Oval, Hobart.
