Australia and Pakistan will clash in the second One-Day International (ODI) of a three-match series tomorrow at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, which is set for a start time of 4:30 pm.
Pakistan will be looking to win the series after an impressive five-wicket win in the first ODI in Rawalpindi, when they took a 1-0 lead.
Both teams reached Lahore on Monday and are going to train at Gaddafi Stadium before the important game.
The green shirts played a disciplined performance in the first ODI with Pakistan regaining the control of the series.
Australia, who chose to bat first, were bowled out for 200 runs in 44.1 overs and the Pakistans bowlers kept the visitors under pressure all through the game.
Young all-rounder Arafat Minhas was the star of the game, holding the record for being the first Pakistani to take five wickets during his ODI debut against Australia.
The left arm spinner had the most outstanding figures of 5 wickets for 32 runs in 10 overs, downing the Australian batting order.
Minhas was quick to dismiss Josh Inglis for 13-runs and dismissed Marnus Labuschagne in the same over for a duck.
He then maintained his form with also dismissing Cameron Green, and then obtained the crucial wicket of Matthew Short after he had scored a half-century.
The youngster rounded off his memorable five wicket stand with the fall of Nathan Ellis.
The Pakistanis were chasing 201 for a win and they reached the target in the 43rd over. Babar Azam was in good form with a measured 69 off 94 balls and Ghazi Ghori chipped in with 65 runs.
Arafat Minhas also got a solid unbeaten 18-runs to help Pakistan comfortably cross finish line.
