Australia, who had chosen to bat first in the game, amassed an impressive total during their innings. While Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne excelled in the middle overs, David Warner and Mitchell Marsh made a strong opening pair. Josh Inglish and Glenn Maxwell each had some entertaining at-bat moments.
With his fiftyth run, Cameron Green helped Australia’s total of 351 runs. Haris Rauf struggled and gave up 78 runs in his six overs. Even if the pitch didn’t help much, Shaheen Afridi and Hasan Ali performed admirably in their first periods, while the spinners also performed admirably. Usama Mir, who took 2 wickets, led Pakistan in wickets taken.
Fielding by the Pakistan cricket team has frequently raised questions. Their efforts on the pitch have been hampered by inconsistent ground fielding, lost catches, and misfields. These fielding errors have prevented them from progressing and cost them important games. Success depends on this area needing improvement. It will be fascinating to see if they have a stronger team during the World Cup or not.
For the unversed, Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan plays the game. He is a left-handed opening batsman who plays for Delhi in first-class cricket and captains Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League. Dhawan was India’s top run-scorer at the 2013 Champions Trophy, 2015 World Cup, and 2017 Champions Trophy.
