PAK vs AUS 3rd Test Day 1 Predictions & Betting Tips

Pakistan will welcome Australia to play the third and the final test from 21st - 25th March 2022. The match is scheduled to commence from 10:30 AM IST at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. I have unearthed the topꦜ three betting tips from the PAK vs AUS Day 1 match prediction for you.

The third and the final test at Lahore will eventually be the series decider after the first two tests ended in a draw. But the home side will be brimming with confidence after pulling off a draw at Karachi. The Pakistani captain Babar Azam scored a blistering 196 run knock and batted for almost 10 hours. Opener Abdullah Shafique’s 96 run knock and Mohammad Rizwan’s unbeaten 104 run knock saw Pakistan create history. The hosts batted for almost 171.4 overs which is the longest any team has batted in the 4th innings of a test match except for England’s 654/5 in the Timeless Test against the Proteas at Durban back in 1939. After bowling out the hosts in barely two sessions in the first innings, the Aussies failed to capitalise fℱrom the winning position. The Aussies have now failed to seal victory from a winning position on five occasions in the last 19 tests. The Lahore Gaddafi Stadium is hosting its first test since 2009 and therefore it is tough to predict the wicket there. The home side have the momentum tilted towards them after the historic draw at Karachi and they will look forward to seal a series victory at La🦩hore. As we gear up for the exciting clash, let us have a look at the top three betting tips from the PAK vs AUS Day 1 match prediction.

PAK vs AUS Player Bet:

Usman Khawaja and Babar Azam are my top two player betting tips from the PAK vs AUS Day 1 match predictio💟n. I am certain that the aforementioned players are going to earn you a lot of cash.

Usman Khawaja To Score Over 32.5 Runs In 1st Innings

The Islamabad born Australian opener, Usman Khawaja is my first pick from the PAK vs AUS Day 1 match prediction. Since making his debut in the 2011 Sydney test against England, the southpaw found it hard to cement his place in the team and was continuously in and out of the squad. But ever since making a comeback in the 4th test of the 2021/22 Ashes series, the 35-year-old looked a completely different player. He scored twin hundreds in the same venue he made his debut against the same opponent. Khawaja racked up 255 runs from two matches and averaged the most in that series. He continued with his red-hot form in the three match test series against Pakistan and has been the leading run-getter in the series at the moment. In the three innings he has batted in, he has added 301 runs to his tally of total runs at an jaw-dropping average of 150.00. He has scored 160, 44*, 97 in the ongoing series. On top of that his stats against the country he was born in is just sensational. The southpaw has played against Pakistan in 7 occasions wherein he has accumulated 797 runs at an phenomenal average of 88.55. He has featured in 48 first team innings in his career to pile 2066 runs from them at an average of 44.91. Khawaja holds an experience of 48 tests in which he has managed to score 3443 runs at an average of 45.30. He has 11 hundreds and 15 half centuries to his name. After a careful analysis of the datas, we have backed Usman Khawaja for the forthcoming match. For now, go to Pari Match and place your bet on him at odds of 1.87 and get some hefty returns.

Babar Azam To Score Over 36.5 Runs In 1st Innings

The Pakistani skipper showed his class and proved his mettle once again in the fourth innings of the Karachi test. Babar Azam aggregated 196 runs and batted for almost 10 hours. His 425 ball stay at the crease was laced with 21 fours and a six. He was also the team’s highest run-getter in the first innings. He received the Player of the Match award for his blistering 196 run knock. Additionally, he also picked up the wicket of dangerous looking Alex Carey in the first innings and leaked just seven runs. The 27-year-old has aggregated 268 runs so far in the ongoing series at an astonishing average of 89.33. The Lahore born cricketer has played 9 matches against the Aussies and has hit 677 runs at an average of 42.31. Since making his test debut back in 2016, he has smashed 2729 runs from 69 innings he has batted in at an average of 45.48. He has six hundreds and 19 fifties to his name. In the last 12 months, the 27-year-old has added 562 runs to his tally of total runs at an average of 51.09.

He has featured in 39 first team innings in his career to pile 1661 runs from them at an average of 47.45. Babar will also take advantage of his home ground in the upcoming game.
