Rain Shortens Pakistan-Australia T20I at Gabba

Pakistan won the toss and elected to bowl in the first T20I against Australia at The Gabba, Brisbane, which was reduced to seven overs per side due to rain. Pakistan, led by Mohammad Rizwan, are aiming to build on their historic ODI series win in Australia, their first in 22 years. The Australian team is missing key players like Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head, with Josh Inglis stepping in as captain. The match highlights include Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah's pivotal roles, with Afridi delivering a massive first over and Shah taking an early wicket. The Australian side features new players such as Jake Fraser-McGurk and Matthew Short due to the absence of regulars. Both teams are eager to make an impact in this truncated series, with Pakistan hoping to secure a rare double victory on Australian soil.
