In the end, had it not been for incessant rain looming and lashing the first T20 match, Australia would have ended up walking all over Pakistan in the series opener. The side were left infuriated by the weather and rightfully so with Australia cruising to their run chase before inclement weather struck the encounter.
In what was a match marred by continuous rainfall, the match was reduced to 15 overs as Pakistan batted first and managed to muster up a mere sorry 107-5. Australia were handed over a revised target of 118 in 15 overs with the side piling on 42 runs in a mere 3.1 overs with the one over of Irfan being ripped into and decimated as he was cleaned out of the park for 26 runs.
The match ended there though as rain returned, seeing us making an advent into the second clash of the series with everything level. With the weather massively improved today and the threat of rain negligible, we should finally have our first clash of the three match series get underway, a match which the home side enter as overwhelming favourites after their last showing.
The side were the dominant force with the bat and ball and should emulate the same rousing display as they look to dismantle Pakistan in this one. We envisage Australia to continue in their merry way and put in yet another clinical display, one where they outshone Pakistan in all the departments of the game to take a crucial 1-0 lead in the series.
