The visitors have so far played an awesome brand of cricket in the ODI. Barring the 3rd and final ODI, Australia have looked good in the bowling and batting departments of the game. T20 format will challenge them as Pakistan have dominated the format since 2021.

Australia have also played a fearless brand of cricket in the T20I format. They have unearthed quite a few stars such as Ben McDermott and Josh Inglis. Even without some of the star players, Australia have enough firepower to challenge Pakistan.
On the other hand, the Babar Azam-led side will look to wrap the T20I series with the same dominance as the ODI series. The batting clicked for the side with Imam-ul-Haq and Azam leading the way. The bowlers also delivered a complete performance in the third ODI with Shaheen Shah Afridi leading the charge. With form and momentum by their side, the hosts would be eager to end the tour with a win.
How it all unfolded!🏏🇵🇰
