We have been moved to the ultimate day of the warm-up matches of the ICC Men’s Cricket Worldcup 2023. Today, PAK will face on AUS. The match is being played at Hyderabad, India, one of three venues chosen for Worldcup warm-up games.
This time, the vice captain of Pakistan Cricket team, Shadab khan, came into the middle together with Pat Cummins who won the toss and decided to give his batters a good day at the batting track and set a mighty total against out of form Pakistani bowling attack. Skipper Babar Azam is rested today and Shaheen in for opening the bowling for Pakistan.
David Warner and Mitchell March open the inning for Australia and they provided a solidplatform without giving away any wickets to Pakistani quicks in the 1st powerplay. Shaheen and Hassan never let two openers to open their shoulder but they were merciless when Haris came to bowl. Australia were capable to score 64/0 in 1st powerplay of the ICC CWC23, India, smashing five 4s and three 6s.
No Pakistani bowler manage to take down both the openers and hence AUS win this phase convincingly. Despite trying all four quicks Australia dominated them all in some style. Warner scored 32 off 25 striking at 128 whilst Marsh grabbed 15 off 29. On the other hand, Hassan Ali proved economical in his 4-overs spell where he only conceded 12 with the economy of 3.
