Pitch and Weather Report:
The Australia-Pakistan fixture will be the final match of the tournament at Leeds, where partly sunny conditions are expected. Two of the four matches at this venue have seen teams breach the 200-mark. If overcast conditions develop, seamers could find assistance from the surface.

Prediction:
We’re going with Australia in this one. Don’t get us wrong, Pakistan are a good side, but their record against Australia in T20Is is nothing short of dreadful. They have never beaten the Aussies in the format, and doing so on a World Cup stage in England feels like a huge challenge.
If Pakistan are to pull off the upset, they’ll need to produce one of their best T20 performances in recent memory. Against a side as dominant and experienced as Australia, anything less than top-quality cricket simply won’t be enough.
Of course, this is cricket, and we’ve seen bigger upsets before. But based on form, experience, and history, we’re backing Australia not just to win, but to win convincingly.
If you want to catch the final game of Triple-Header Tuesday between Australia and Pakistan, then tune into JioHotstar at 11:00 PM IST. If you’re watching from the United Kingdom, you can catch all the action live on Sky Sports Cricket at 6:30 PM BST. Will Australia tighten their grip on top spot, or can Pakistan pull off one of the biggest upsets of the tournament? There’s only one way to find out.
Until next time!
Thank you.
