by Wisden Staff 2 minute read

Pakistan will play Australia today (October 3) in both side’s final warm-up match before the 2023 Cricket World Cup gets underway – here’s where you can watch IND vs NED, including telecast and live streaming details.

The match will be held in the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad, three and five days before Pakistan and Australia respectively kick-off their World Cup campaigns.

Pakistan lost to New Zealand in their first warm-up match last week, and there was no result possible in Australia’s match against the Netherlands due to rain.

AUS vs PAK: Live score and playing XIs

Australia have won the toss and decided to bat first.

Australia XI: David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey, Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, Josh Inglis, Pat Cummins (c), Mitchell Starc, Sean Abbott

Pakistan XI: Imam-ul-Haq, Fakhar Zaman, Abdullah Shafique, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan (c), Mohammad Nawaz, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Haris (wk), Salman Ali Agha, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Wasim Jr., Hasan Ali, Usama Mir.

The match will begin at 2pm local time in Hyderabad. Both teams will undoubtedly want to give as many of their players as possible practice before the start of the tournament, so all members of each playing squad are expected to participate, apart from Travis Head, who is still recovering from a broken hand. Mitchell Starc will hope to carry on his good form from Australia’s previous match against the Netherlands, where he took a hat-trick with the new ball before rain curtailed the game.

Pakistan will look to bounce back after New Zealand chased down 346 against them last Friday (September 29). Skipper Babar Azam is rested today. Shadab Khan will lead the side in his absence. Mohammad Rizwan has got a break as well.
