Host Australia will be looking to turn their fortunes around when they take on Pakistan in the opening match of the T20I series played at The Gabba, Brisbane on Thursday.
After losing the ODI series to Pakistan, Interim captain Jos Inglis will be hoping that the side can learn from their mistakes and put in a disciplined performance in this opening fixture.
On the other hand, Pakistan will be looking to continue their winning ways after beating Australia in the ODI series after almost two decades.
Pacer Nathan Ellis, and Tim David are only two players added into Australia’s squad for the three-match T20I series.
In the batting department, the side will be relying on the likes of Jake Fraser McGurk, Jos Inglis, Matthew Short, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis and Tim David to deliver the bulk of the runs.
With a splendid ton against Scotland earlier this year, Jos Inglis has shown excellent form with the bat for Australia and will be keen to do more of the same in this series
In the bowling department, the side will be depending on the likes of Spencer Johnson, Nathan Ellis, Sean Abbott, Marcus Stoinis and Adam Zampa to deliver timely breakthroughs.
Since May 2024, Leg-spinner Azam Zampa claimed 19 wickets in 12 innings at an economy rate of 6.97.
The wicket-keeper batter has scored 42, 37, 103, 27, and 14 runs in his last five T20I matches. In 2024, he has amassed 292 runs in 10 matches, averaging 36.5 runs per innings. At Brisbane, he has scored 106 runs in four matches. Inglis has been the most consistent Australian batter recently. Given his current form, we back him to score over 22.5 runs against the formidable Pakistani pace attack.

In the batting department, the side will be relying on captain Mohammad Rizwan, Babar Azam, Usman Khan, Agha Salman, Irfan Khan and Arafat Minhas to deliver the bulk of the runs.
Since May 2024, Babar Azam has topped the batting charts for Pakistan in the T20 Format. In seven matches played, Babar has accumulated 265 runs at an average of 44.10 with one half-century to his name.
In the bowling department, the side will be depending on the pace quartet of Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf and Abbas Afridi to deliver timely breakthroughs.
Since May 2024, Pacer Haris Rauf claimed 12 wickets in six innings at an economy rate of 7.68.
The fiery fast bowler played a pivotal role in Pakistan's historic ODI series win, claiming 10 wickets. He has consistently bowled good lines and lengths, troubling the Australian batters. Bowling in the crucial death overs provides him with ample opportunities to pick up wickets. We back him to continue his impressive form and claim at least two wickets in the first T20I.
Babar Azam showed signs of a return to form in the third ODI, remaining unbeaten on 28 runs. It has been a challenging year for the 30-year-old, but considering the inexperience of the Australian pace attack and his recent form in the series, we believe betting on Babar Azam to score over 25.5 runs could be a good bet
Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan (c & wk), Usman Khan, Arafat Minhas, Agha Salman, Irfan Khan, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Abbas Afridi.

The first innings score at Brisbane in the T20s played so far is around 166 runs. The highest total posted here was Australia’s 209 for 3 against South Africa. Australia ed a comprehensive 95-run win over South Africa.
The weather forecast for the game is thundery showers in the first half of the match.
The Gabba, Brisbane is going to host the opening match of the T20I series played between Australia and Pakistan.Australia will take heart from the fact that they have won their last four matches played against Pakistan.
Pakistan-Australia matches are often characterized by moderate scores, typically ranging between 150 and 160 runs. With the Pakistani bowlers in good form and the high-paced, bouncy pitch at the WACA, we anticipate a relatively low-scoring match, with the total score likely to be under 335.5 runs.
The Gabba, Brisbane has been a great venue for batting first. Seven matches out of the ten T20Is played have been won by sides batting first.Both the captains will be keen to win the toss, and field first.
Based on current form, Pakistan will be slight favorites to win their match against Australia. The likes of Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah and Shaheen Afridi have been phenomenal in the ODI series, the team management will be hoping for more of the same in this T20I series.
Expect Pakistan to beat Australia and go 1-0 up in the T20I series.
