After nearly a year away from the 50-over format, Pakistan will face off against Australia in the first of a three-match ODI series on Monday, November 4th. The match, to be held at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground, marks the return of the Pakistan team following their exit from the ODI Cricket World Cup last November.
The match holds added significance as Pakistan looks to build momentum ahead of hosting the Champions Trophy next year. Under the captaincy of wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan, the team faces a formidable opponent in Australia, who will be looking to build momentum ahead of the upcoming five-Test Border Gavaskar Trophy against India.
The match is scheduled to begin at 9:00 AM Indian Standard Time and will be televised live on the Star Sports Network in India. Fans can also stream the match live on the Disney+ Hotstar app and website.
