AUS vs PAK Match Preview
On Friday afternoon in Bengaluru, Australia and Pakistan will face off in Match 18 of the 2023 Cricket World Cup. Despite having won the tournament five times previously, Australia was defeated by India and South Africa in their first two games before finally getting their first win with a 5 wicket victory over Sri Lanka on Monday. The victory over Sri Lanka was a huge relief for Australia, but there were moments when it appeared that they might be in trouble and would suffer another defeat. Australia, on the other hand, is a strong team that will be confident of making it two wins in a row. Pakistan were soundly defeated by India in Match 12 of the competition, and they will be eager to get back on track as soon as possible.

Topmost Picks for AUS vs PAK Dream11 Prediction:
Top Picks – Australia
- Mitchell Marsh- the powerful right-handed batting all-rounder has enjoyed batting at the top of the order over the last month. He comes into this game after hitting nine fours in his 52 against Sri Lanka.
- Adam Zampa- if Australia are to be successful in this tournament then they will need their premier spinner to be on form. He took the Player of the Match Award with 4-47 against Sri Lanka.
Top Picks – Pakistan
- Babar Azam- the skipper had been in disappointing form over the last month or so in this format but he top scored for his side with 50 runs from 58 balls in the big match against India.
- Mohammad Nawaz – Pakistan’s spin all-rounder has picked 2 wickets and scored 43 runs so far. His spin abilities can prove to be useful on this pitch which favours the spinners especially in the 2nd innings.

Mohammad Rizwan(C), Josh Inglis, David Warner(VC), Abdullah Shafique, Babar Azam, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Shadab Khan, Hasan Ali, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc

AUS vs PAK Probable Winners
This appears to be a very close and entertaining game between two teams desperate not to lose in Bengaluru. If Pakistan is to defeat Australia, they will need either all of their world-class players to be on top form or some of their other players to step up. Australia will look to attack Pakistan with both bat and ball from the first ball, and if they detect any weakness, they will go even harder. We anticipate a close race, but Australia will prevail. Considering the team combination, Australia is expected to win this match.
