Match Analysis – Dominance from Start to Finish
Opting to bat first, Pakistan started strong, reaching 58/1 in the PowerPlay, led by Babar Azam’s fluent strokes. However, what followed was a shocking collapse. Despite excellent batting conditions, Pakistan’s middle order faltered under pressure. Stand-in skipper Agha Salman and Usman Khan fell in quick succession, with Adam Zampa and Aaron Hardie dismantling the batting lineup.
Key moments:
Babar Azam’s 41 anchored the innings but lacked support.
Pakistan registered their highest PowerPlay score against Australia but slumped to a mere 117 all out in 18.1 overs.
Australia's chase started shakily with early dismissals of Matt Short and Jake Fraser-McGurk. But Marcus Stoinis took charge, delivering a brutal counterattack. His unbeaten 61 off just 27 balls, including massive hits against Haris Rauf and Shaheen Afridi, ensured a quick finish with 52 balls to spare.
