Australia will look to level the series after a disappointing 1st ODI performance when they take on Pakistan in the second ODI match at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium on Tuesday, June 2. The ODI side will not feature any of the prominent names including regular captain Mitchell Marsh and Josh Hazlewood.
Talking about the 1st ODI, Matthew Short's fifty and Matt Renshaw's brilliant 61 were the only saving grace for the Aussies as the World Champions were bowled out for 200 in 44.1 overs against the Pakistani bowlers, led by Arafat Minhas' five-wicket haul.
Minhas finished with figures of 5/32 in 10 overs as Australia's batting collapsed saw the likes of Marnus Labuschagne (0) and Cameron Green (0) unable to get going.
In reply, Pakistan reached the total in 42.3 overs with Babar Azam (69) and Ghazi Ghori (65) making notable contributions to gain a 1-0 lead in the series. The Aussies have a poor track record on Pakistani soil as far as 50-over format is concerned, with their last triumph coming in 1998.
Australia: Josh Inglis (C), Alex Carey, Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Matthew Kuhnemann, Marnus Labuschagne, Riley Meredith, Oliver Peake, Matthew Renshaw, Tanveer Sangha, Liam Scott, Matt Short, Billy Stanlake, Adam Zampa
