This is the second leg of Pakistan’s tour to Australia. The first was a three-match ODI series, which the visitors won 2-1 to record just their second-ever bilateral ODI series victory Down Under.

AUS vs PAK T20Is 2024: Team news

The majority of Australia’s all-format players are missing from this series as they prepare for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Test series against India. As a result, it gives the hosts a chance to test out several younger players. They will be led by Josh Inglis, who has become Australia’s 30th men’s white-ball captain. He is part of the Test squad for the first match against India in Perth, but is unlikely to make the playing XI.

The bowling group for Australia is relatively new, with Spencer Johnson and Xavier Bartlett set to lead the attack, and all-rounders Aaron Hardie and Sean Abbott playing supporting roles. The more experienced players in the squad are leg spinner Adam Zampa and batting all-rounder Glenn Maxwell.

Under new white-ball captain Mohammad Rizwan, Pakistan have also gone for several fresh faces in their squad. The batting group in particular has several, with the likes of Haseebullah Khan, Irfan Khan Niazi, Omair Bin Yousuf and Sahibzada Farhan. Spinners Sufiyan Muqeem and Arafat Minhas, as well as seam-bowling all-rounder Jahandad Khan are also among the squad.
