Key Players

Travis Head

Travis Head made an explosive century opening the batting in the first game. He looked in fine touch, and with Aaron Finch struggling to make big scores, Head seems likely to give the selectors some happy headaches.

Iman-ul-Haq

Imam-ul-Haq began where he left off in the Test series. He was striking the ball well, keeping Pakistan in the game single-handedly. He has finally grown into a strong batter after years of potential not being used and seems like he is ready to take on the bowlers and dominate the game. He needs some support from his teammates, but as a batter, he looks to be doing what is needed nicely.

Pakistan vs Australia Match Tips

Australia may have won the first game but with a depleted side and a decent Pakistan team, it may be difficult for them to seal the series just yet.

Today’s match prediction:   Pakistan will win the match.
