Australia will face Pakistan next in the ODI World Cup 2023 on Friday. The match will be played at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore.
Australia didn’t start well in the competition as they lost back-to-back games against India and South Africa, respectively. However, they finally managed to open their account with a win over Sri Lanka in their previous game.
On the other hand, Pakistan had a contrasting start with back-to-back wins over Netherlands and Sri Lanka, respectively. However, they lost their last game to India in one completely one-sided game. Both teams now will look to win this fixture as a loss to any side will make their run to the semifinals difficult.
