Pakistan’s innings was marked by aggressive yet calculated batting. Opener Saim Ayub stood out with a fluent 56 runs, providing a strong start. All rounder Shadab Khan added a lively 46, keeping the scoreboard ticking with some daring shots. Skipper Babar Azam then anchored the innings with an unbeaten half century, steering the team to a formidable 207 for six in 20 overs.
Australia’s bowling attack was led by Ben Dwarshuis, who picked up two key wickets. Matthew Kuhnemann, Matthew Short, Cooper Connolly, and Cameron Green each claimed a scalp, attempting to slow down the Pakistani momentum.
With victories in the first two T20s of the series, Pakistan had already secured the series win. The opener in the series saw Pakistan edge Australia by 22 runs, while the second match was a commanding 90 run triumph for the hosts.
This final encounter promises high drama as Australia chases what will be one of the more challenging T20 targets of the season, while Pakistan looks to seal the series with a clean sweep.
