The covers are firmly place at the square of The Gabba with darks clouds looming.

FORM GUIDE
Pakistan enter the T20I series with momentum in their favour as the visitors recently registered their first series victory in Australia across formats since 2017.
However, their recent performances in the shortest format say otherwise.
Pakistan are playing their first match since their dismal ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 campaign, which saw them crashing out from the group stage of the tournament for the first time due to their gut-wrenching defeats against the USA and arch-rivals India.
Australia, on the other hand, are fresh from a 3-0 routing of Scotland and a 1-1 stalemate against fierce rivals England.
Pakistan: W, W, L, L, L (most recent first)
Australia: NR, L, W, W, W
