Watch Pakistan vs Australia 1st T20 Match Live Cricket Streaming
Mitchell Johnson believes Australia will be able to overcome the loss of fellow pace bowler Ryan Harris in their series with Pakistan.
Harris has been ruled out of the remainder of Australia’s tour with a knee injury suffered in a 42-run win in the fifth and final one-day international against England at Lord’s on Saturday.
That means the 30-year-old will miss the two Twenty20 internationals against Pakistan at Edgbaston here on Monday and Tuesday and the teams’ subsequent two Tests at Lord’s and Headingley. The matches being played in England because of concerns about the security situation in Pakistan.
Australia arrived in England without pacemen Brett Lee, Ben Hilfenhaus and Peter Siddle, as well as Johnson, who missed the one-dayers against England with an infected elbow. But Johnson is now fit to resume and with Shaun Tait, only drafted into the tour after off-spinner Nathan Hauritz was ruled out with a foot injury, having hit the 100mph mark at Lord’s, Doug Bollinger in good form and teenager Josh Hazlewood also featuring against England, Australia have several pace options.
Afridi allayed concerns over a side injury with a typically dashing 42 off 14 balls in Pakistan’s final warm-up match, a six-wicket Twenty20 win over Northamptonshire on Saturday.
Australia Twenty20 captain Michael Clarke (Test skipper Ricky Ponting has long since retired from international cricket’s shortest format) is expected to be fit after a back injury ruled him out of the fifth one-dayer at Lord’s.
