Pakistan vs Australia Head to Head record in T20Is and T20 World Cup

Semi-final 2 of the T20 World Cup 2021 would see Pakistan taking on Australia at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Thursday (November 11). Both sides have been phenomenal in this competition so far and it would be interesting to see how this game pans out. Having won their all five games in the league stage, Pakistan would be high on confidence and would like to extend their winning streak. On the other hand, Australia’s campaign had a hiccup in form of an eight-wicket defeat against arch-rivals England. Besides this, however, the Aussies won their remaining games.

Head to Head record:

Pakistan dominate Australia in terms of head-to-head record in T20Is. These two teams have played 23 T20I matches so far. Out of which 13 have been won by the Men in Green while the Aussies have won seven games. One of their clashes got washed out due to rain. As far as T20 World Cups are concerned, these two teams have five times and the head-to-head record stands 3-3.

As a result, the Aussies posted 193/4.

Chasing the challenging target, Pakistan looked in the hunt for the best part as the likes of Sharjeel Khan, Khalid Latif, Umar Akmal, and Shoaib Malik played handy cameos. However, James Faulkner dented their plans with a five-fer as the Shahid Afridi-led side was restricted to 172/8, losing the contest by 21 runs.
