I will be frank with you and say that I truly believe we can do this. The gulf between sides isnt that huge.
 
They can win tomorrow but it depends on Azhars captaincy and the performance of the middle and lower order.
 
Pakistan's chances hinges on having correct personnel at their rightful position. Pakistan's bowling is doing wonders atm and already bowled better than NZ and India combined.

However, Australian batting is far better than visitors and it takes real special performance to outdo them at home.
 
Need to do something with Handscomb. Khawaja and Warner are both due.
 
Well nothing is impossible in cricket, however it seems unlikely.

We need to follow the script of the 2nd ODI, bowl first and restrict them to a target which is within our reach and hope one or two batsman sticks their hands up.

If we bat first we will never be able to set a stiff enough target to challenge them. If we make 300 you can bet your bottom dollar that the Aussies will make 300 and then some.
 
who knows

doubt we win the final game

we could go 344-7 and bowl australia out for 300
and in the final game do what we typically do
australia make 270 and we get blitzed out for 100

you never know with us
 
We can def win.
IT is going to spin a bit so Imad can control the middle overs together with Hafeez and Hassan Ali.
If Amir and junaid keep bowling like they have in the previous 2 games we Will be able to beat them in sha Allah.
 
There isn't a massive gap between the two sides currently in this series. Australia's batting is looking a little shaky, only Smith and Warner holding it together. Pitches even seem to be favouring us a bit, they're pretty flat so we're not getting bounced off for pace. The Australian ODI side seems a lot weaker than usual this series. Even the last ODI, we got unlucky with the bowling, had a little luck been on our side I think that match would have been competitive.
 
Move Rizwan to 4 because he's practically like a tailender batting at number 7,

Have Hafeez bat at 5, with Malik at 6 and Akmal coming in at 7
 
Pakistan have never chased over 300 against Australia. Highest sucessful run-chase for them in Australia is 274 and that was in 1987.

-CB

history is against them
