In the last 3 matches Warner has played against Pakistan, he has scored: 107, 179, and 130. It's important to get him early; did this overeagerness contribute to the poor review?#AUSvsPAK #CWC23 #CWC2023 #Cricket #PakistanCricket pic.twitter.com/9WDBpYMlZy

Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and opted to field first against Australia in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Friday.

Following defeats to India and South Africa in their first two matches, Pat Cummins-led Australia returned to winning ways after registering a 5-wicket victory over Sri Lanka.
Pakistan's disappointing loss to India last time out was a setback after their strong start. However, the Men in Green will have a chance to make amends when they take on five-time champions at Bengaluru today.
