Pakistan tour of Australia

Tomorow we will see the first ODI match between Australia and Pakistan. The three match series will be played at MCG and i think Australia will have an upper hand in this series not only that Pakistan is in bad shape but also that this match is being played at Aussies Home ground so they have an advantage.
This has been priced in by the bookies too and they are giving 1.18 odds to Australia and if anyone want to bet on Pakistan, they can get 4.6 odds. Another thing to note is that Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head aren't playing this match.


Yes, The first ODI match between Pakistan and Australia started and first powerpaly is competed. Pakistan lowest score 36 runs in power play against Australia in last 5 years. Australia are hot favorite's to win this ODI match because they are familiar to home condition and strong team in ODI format. Pakistan current score is 47 runs in a loss of just 2 wickets in first 13 over of the match. Abdullah Shafique gift his wicket in simple leaving ball to Mitchell Starc. from Australia Mitchell Starc bowl a outstanding first spell picked 2 crucial wickets by just giving 19 runs. Babar Azam is playing at 29 runs from 31 balls and New Captain of Pakistan team Muhammad Rizwan is playing at 5 runs. The Patnerhsip between Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan is very important for Pakistan if they want to score a good total on board.
If Shafique and Saim Ayub could have batted normally and added some more runs to the team, it would have been difficult for Australia to win this match. Also, Babar Azam and Rizwan's batting cannot be said to have been very good. Babar Azam batted with 84 and Rizwan 61 strike rates. We saw in the end that Australia lost 8 wickets in chasing down 203 runs setted by Pakistan, if they could have added 30 more runs, the outcome of the match could have been a little different.

I have no complaints about Pakistani bowlers in today's match as they bowled well enough. Due to the low score, Pakistan was able to create a chance in today's match but could not implement it. Pakistan's series started with a 1 loss in the 3-match series. Both teams will try to do well in the upcoming matches.
