Australia and Pakistan are going to play their fourth match today in this World Cup today. While Australia has managed to win 2 out of 3 matches in this World Cup, Pakistan has won only one and one got washed out due to rain.
For Pakistan, winning this match would give them a strong push in the World Cup after displaying good performance against the hosts and tournament favourites England. Their bowlers and batsman played unexpectedly well in their last game and same is expected from them against Australia. Their bowlers have to be extra careful against Australia’s batting, mainly the top order. On the other side, the batsmen have to play diligently against Mitchell Starc, Nathan Coulter-Nile and Pat Cummins.

Australia’s performance has been moderate in this World Cup. This match is crucial to them for advance towards the top three of the points table. The top order consisting of David Warner, Aaron Finch and Usman Khawaja have all looked in good touch. Steve Smith has been pouring in runs for the team. However, their bowlers still have to work hard, given their just above average performance against India in their last match, and restrict Pakistan to a lower total.
