Australia and Pakistan will compete in the final ODI of the 3-game series on November 10 at the Perth Stadium starting from 9.00 AM IST. The series stands levelled at 1-1 which makes the final game a crucial series decider.

Pakistan, fielding under new captain Mohammad Rizwan, lost a hard-fought battle in the series opener but bounced back strongly to win the 2nd ODI by 9 wickets. Haris Rauf has so far been the star for Pakistan as he clubbed 8 wickets in 2 games, including a fifer. Saim Ayub also showcased his talent in the previous game with 82 off 71 balls.

On the other hand, Australia will be paralysed for the 3rd ODI as key players are rested to prepare for the Border-Gavaskar Series. Josh Inglis will lead the side in absence of Pat Cummins. Needless to say, the absence of star players will only add to Australia’s woes and Pakistan are being offered a golden opportunity to clinch a rare series victory on Australia soil.
