The first match of the three-match T20 series between Australia and Pakistan has begun after a delayed toss, with Pakistan deciding to bowl first against the Kangaroos.
According to a report by The Express Tribune earlier, the toss for the opening T20I of the series was delayed due to persistent rain, with light drizzle falling in the area since last night. However, the latest update confirmed that both teams eventually went out for the toss.
Pakistani captain Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and invited Australia to bat first. Due to the rain delay and limited time, both teams will now play a 7-over match, which is a concern for cricket fans eagerly awaiting this exciting game.
