In the current white-ball series, Australia and Pakistan will play each other in the opening Twenty20 International. In a recent ODI series between the two teams, Pakistan upset Australia in their own backyard for the first time since 2002 after losing the opening ODI and winning the second and third games.
The first Twenty20 International between the two teams will take place on Thursday, November 14 at the Brisbane Cricket Ground in Woolloongabba, Brisbane, and will be the first in a three-match series.
Australia will be looking to improve their performance following a forgettable series, while the Men in Green will be seeking to put up a performance akin to that of the ODI series.
