Pitch Report :

The National Stadium in Karachi is known for its batting-friendly nature, which often leads to high-scoring matches. The Pacers are likely to be more effective on this wicket. The surface offers good bounce, benefiting fast bowlers at the initial stage of the game, as they can create movement and challenge the batters. However, the pacers might get a help from the new ball and that might some cause trouble to the top order batters. But if the batters can play the initial phase out there is plenty of runs available for them. Both teams will prefer chasing at this venue.

The average first innings score is here 270 runs.

Weather Report :

The temperature is expected to hover around 22°C on the Saturday with 65% humidity and 8 km/hr wind speed. There are no chance of the rain during the match.

Probable XI :

Australia :

Travis Head, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Steve Smith (c), Marnus Labuschagne, Glenn Maxwell, Alex Carey (wk), Aaron Hardie, Sean Abbott, Nathan Ellis, Adam Zampa, Spencer Johnson.

Phil Salt, Ben Duckett, Jamie Smith (wk), Joe Root, Harry Brook, Jos Buttler (c), Liam Livingstone, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood.

Preview :

Australia (AUS) will take on England (ENG) in the 4th match of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This match will be played at Gadaffi Stadium in Lahore.

Reigning ODI champions Australia must level up their standards to be successful in the Champions Trophy 2025 in Pakistan. They are placed in Group B alongside heavyweights England and South Africa, while they can’t consider giant killers Afghanistan lightly by any means. Steven Smith has been handed the responsibilities to lead the side with their premier pace Pat Cummins ruled out with an injury. They dealt with a couple of other huge blows as their front-line seamers Josh Hazlewood (injury) and Mitchell Starc (personal reasons) dropped out of the squad. All-rounder, Marcus Stoinis who was with the earlier Champions Trophy squad has abruptly called his time from ODI cricket.

The selectors picked Spencer Johnson, Ben Dwarshuis, Jake Fraser McGurk, and Tanveer Sangha as replacements. Steven Smith, Travis Head, Marnus Labuschagne, Josh Inglis, Alex Carey, Adam Zampa, Glenn Maxwell, and Sean Abbott, who are all part of the ICC Cricket World Cup title win in 2023 have been retained. Their batting is sorted, while the bowling unit lacks experience. Over the last 12 months, Australia featured in 13 ODIs and managed to win 7 of those.

An uphill challenge awaits England in Pakistan, who have been criticized for their poor show during their visit to India where they lost the ODI series 3-0 this month. The new coach-captain combination of Brendon McCullum and Jos Buttler are under immense pressure to deliver favorable results in the bid to win their first-ever Champions Trophy title. Three Lions make one change from their earlier squad with injured Jacob Bethell replaced by Tom Banton, who got a call-up following his exceptional batting performances for MI Emirates in the ILT20.

England has been consistent in the last 3 editions, reaching the Semi-finals twice and finals once. They are banking on themselves to go one step ahead this time. They unveiled their starting eleven ahead of their opener against Australia with Jamie Smith set to don the gloves behind the stumps and provide enough depth with the bat.
