Australia to Play Three T20Is in Lahore Ahead of 2026 World Cup

Mazaj News. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced the schedule for Australia’s upcoming T20I tour of Pakistan later this month. The three-match T20I series will be held at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium on 29 and 31 January, and 1 February.

Australia’s T20I squad is set to arrive in Lahore on Wednesday, 28 January. The coin toss for all three matches will take place at 5:30 pm PKT, with the first deliveries expected at 6:00 pm PKT.

This series will provide important match practice for both teams ahead of the ICC Men’s T20I World Cup 2026. Pakistan is in Group A, while Australia is in Group B.

This tour marks Australia’s third visit to Pakistan since March-April 2022, when they played a three-match Test and ODI series, followed by a single T20I. They also contested three matches of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 in Pakistan.

Australia secured a narrow three-wicket victory in the only T20I they played at the Gaddafi Stadium on 5 April 2022.
