The three-match Test series is scheduled to begin on March 4. It is to be followed by a three-game ODI series and a one-off T20I.
The Test series will form a part of the World Test Championship and will be important for both the sides. Pakistan sit on third place in the WTC, while Australia are placed second.
This tour will also be a stern test for the Australia side, which hasn’t done well in the Test format in the subcontinent over the last decade. Their last two away contests against Pakistan have ended in series defeats. They lost 0-2 to Pakistan in UAE in 2014, and 0-1 in 2018.
The ODIs will form a part of the ODI World Cup Super League, and will also carry points that will matter for the World Cup qualification.
