Australia vs Pakistan | Cricket Match Prediction | 2nd ODI | Nov 08 – Can AUS win this series with one match to spare?
AUS vs PAK Match Analysis
Adelaide Oval, Adelaide, will host the second ODI of a three-match ODI series between Australia and Pakistan at 9:30 BDT on November 8, 2024.
Australia’s win at the MCG marked their second consecutive victory over the Asian side, and the hosts will be eager to clinch the series, especially with several Test stars preparing to depart for their Border-Gavaskar Trophy camp.
Pakistan will need to regroup quickly after nearly pulling off an upset in the first game at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, channeling their efforts into halting a second-string Australian side. This presents Pakistan with a valuable opportunity to experiment with various players in different roles as their preparations for hosting the Champions Trophy ramp up.
AUS vs PAK Team Preview & Squads
Australia
Australia labored through a tense and hard-fought victory, with captain Pat Cummins playing a brave knock to see them through. The Pakistani pacers found their rhythm in the middle of their bowling spell, consistently hitting the right line and length on a typical MCG pitch, causing problems for the Australian batters. Meanwhile, AUS bowlers effectively exploited the conditions to challenge the visiting batting line-up, restricting them to just over 200 runs.
The target was achievable, and it seemed like a formality when Steve Smith and Josh Inglis were in control. However, the collapse began once both were dismissed. The lower middle order struggled against a strong pace attack, but a brave effort from Captain Pat Cummins saw them cross the line. With the Test players preparing for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the hosts would prefer not to leave it too late.
Australia’s batting wasn’t particularly convincing in the first game, but the batters will be aiming for a solid performance to secure a win and wrap up the series. New opening pair Matt Short and Jake Fraser-McGurk will be eager to form a strong partnership at the top, having failed in the opening match.
Australia Squads
Josh Hazlewood, Marcus Stoinis, Pat Cummins, Matthew Short, Adam Zampa, Glenn Maxwell, Sean Abbott, Aaron Hardie, Cooper Connolly, Marnus Labuschagne, Steven Smith, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Inglis.
Pakistan
Pakistan struggled against the Australian pacers, with only Babar Azam showing some resistance at the crease. Apart from a few solid innings, the rest of the Pakistani batters lacked confidence, and their slow scoring rate was a significant concern. They can’t afford such a pace against an Australian team with several hard-hitting batsmen in their lineup.
Pakistan’s pacers gave it their all, with Harris Rauf impressing with consistent pace, and Mohammad Hasnain maintaining tight control. However, Shaheen Shah Afridi couldn’t quite replicate their efforts. PAK will be hoping for a much-improved batting performance to give their bowlers a better opportunity to challenge the Australian batsmen.
Containing the new opening pair of Matt Short and Jake Fraser-McGurk will be a major challenge. Both are aggressive ball strikers who look to take the game on from the outset.
Pakistan Squads
Haseebullah Khan, Mohammad Rizwan, Aamer Jamal, Abdullah Shafique, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Irfan Khan, Babar Azam, Arafat Minhas, Kamran Ghulam, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, Saim Ayub, Faisal Akram, Mohammad Hasnain, and Agha Salman.

Australia vs Pakistan outfield report
The fate of the game is not determined by the toss, but teams—particularly the hosts—have had great success pursuing a target. After winning the toss, we believe both captains would choose to bowl first.
According to the weather forecast, there will be some showers in the morning, but they should clear out and return to sunny conditions for the majority of the afternoon. To stay unaffected, play.
Although Adelaide’s batting surface is among the greatest in Australia, it has recently proved a little challenging to score runs in the Sheffield Shield.
