Thu Nov 14 09:07:03 UTC 2024: ## Australia Face Pakistan in First T20I With Several Key Players Missing
Brisbane, Australia – Australia and Pakistan kick off their three-match T20I series today at the Gabba in Brisbane. The series comes on the heels of Pakistan’s historic ODI series victory, their first in Australia in 22 years. Pakistan will be aiming to continue their strong form in the shortest format, with their first T20I since their disappointing performance at the T20 World Cup in June.
Australia will be without several key players for the series, including their three first-choice T20I bowlers, captain Mitchell Marsh, and opener Travis Head. Josh Inglis will lead the team in Marsh’s absence, and Tim David will be a key player in the middle order.
The first T20I has been delayed due to rain, with the cut-off for a five-over match set at 2:59 PM IST. Fans are eagerly awaiting the match, hoping for an exciting contest between two strong teams.
