Australia vs Pakistan, 1st T20I Highlights: Australia beat Pakistan by 29 runs in rain-hit contest

Haris Rauf to steam in after the Powerplay.

Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Thumped down the ground! 17 from this over then. Fuller and on middle. A slower one. This is lofted down the ground and to the long off fence. 

Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Slapped away! A little too short again. Maxwell makes room. He slaps it over cover and this races away. Another massive over. 

Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! This is just brilliant! How does he do that? This is someone bowling at 140 KPH. Maxwell gets the reverse sweep out. This is shorter. He hits it over the keeper and it goes to the fence. 

Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, A wide now! Slower but down the leg side. Wided. It is actually a No Ball for overstepping! A big one as well. Free Hit coming up. 

Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, Good comeback! Changes his length and bowls it slower. It is on the body. Maxwell bails out of the pull. 

Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! That's outstanding! Outrageous! Wow! He brings out the reverse sweep first up. It is on middle. This is hit behind square on the off side. Boundary. 

Glenn Maxwell has been sent up the order at number 3.

Naseem Shah to Jake Fraser-McGurk, OUT! Taken! Straight to the man! Azam holds on. Shah strikes on the very first ball he bowls. Length and on off. Jake Fraser-McGurk looks to hit it on the up and past cover but provides a simple catch to that fielder. Welcome wicket for Pakistan. 

Naseem Shah to bowl from the other end.

Shaheen Afridi to Matthew Short, SIX! Bang! All the way! That's a massive first over! 16 from it! This is short and on middle. Short loves it there. He pulls it and it sails over the fine leg fence. Massive hit. 

Shaheen Afridi to Jake Fraser-McGurk, Makes room now! This is shorter and on middle. It is slapped down to long on for one. 

Shaheen Afridi to Jake Fraser-McGurk, Swing and a miss! Jake misses out there! It is wide outside off. No one in the deep. He swings but misses. Had he got bat to that, it could have been three in a row. 

Shaheen Afridi to Jake Fraser-McGurk, FOUR! This is even better! A little too full. On middle. Jake shows the full face of the bat and creams it past mid on. No chance of stopping that one. Lovely stroke. 

Shaheen Afridi to Jake Fraser-McGurk, FOUR! Off the mark in style! A little bit of swing but hits it with it. On middle. This is whipped through mid-wicket and this races away to the fence. 

Shaheen Afridi to Matthew Short, Australia and Short are underway! Full and on middle. This is flicked but to mid on for one. 

All in readiness for the 1st T20I to begin! The umpires are out in the middle and the players of Pakistan get into a huddle before making their way through the smoke and onto the field. It will be the duo of Matthew Short and Jake Fraser-McGurk to open the innings for Australia. Shaheen Afridi will take the new ball and he is raring to go. Let's play...

Pakistan (Playing XI) - Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan (C/WK), Sahibzada Farhan, Usman Khan, Salman Agha, Irfan Khan, Abbas Afridi, Shaheen Afridi, Haseebullah Khan, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah.
