Australia begin their latest ODI campaign carrying confidence from their last 50-over assignment, where they defeated India 2-1 at home. Although several months have passed since that series, the visitors will be eager to maintain their strong record in the format.
Josh Inglis and his team face a challenging task against Pakistan in Rawalpindi, where conditions are expected to favour bowlers early on. With experienced names such as Alex Carey, Cameron Green and Marnus Labuschagne in the lineup, Australia will look to make a winning start and gain valuable momentum for future ODI competitions.
