AUS vs PAK 3rd Test - 2023-24, Pink Test Match Prediction
Views:
David Warner’s Baggy Green has been the talk of the town now. The cricketer found the last resort in an Instagram video, requesting to return the commodities, as it has sentimental values attached to them.
Well, this is not surprising, we all have something we call our lucky charm. David is going to play his final and 112th test match at Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) against Pakistan. This is going to be a Pink Test.
Now you must be wondering about what a Pink Test is, since we have used this term almost two to three times. Well, the Pink Test is the first Test match of the year played at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).
The Aussies are leading the Test Series with (2-0), but still we are waiting for the action, who knows Pakistan might fetch the victory, if Aussies let them. The bitter taste of defeat in the last two Tests might have extended the urge of victory in the PAK Team. Fact - India is the only team to ever win a Test Series in Australia, one in 2019 and another in 2021.
Can PAK win this match? It looks hard, considering the performance in the last two Tests
