Pakistan and Australia play the third and deciding ODI of their three-match series at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on June 4, with the score level at 1-1. The match is scheduled to start at 5:00 PM IST, with the toss set for 4:30 PM IST.
PAK vs AUS fans in different markets will need separate plans: there is no official television broadcast partner for the series in India, so viewers there should use the Sports TV YouTube channel for a live stream. Fans inside Pakistan can watch through PCB Live, while viewers in Australia can follow through local broadcast and streaming partners, including Kayo Sports.
The series has already handed both teams clear statements. Pakistan won the opener in Rawalpindi by five wickets before Australia replied with a 41-run victory in the second ODI in Lahore, leaving the tour with a winner-takes-all finale.
For those who do not have access to the live video streams, ball-by-ball coverage and live scores will be available on platforms such as ESPNcricinfo, Cricbuzz and Cricket Australia’s Match Centre.
Pitch and weather will matter. The Lahore surface can offer increasing assistance to spinners as the game progresses, and forecasts suggest there might be some rain during the day — a combination that could influence whether teams prefer to bat or bowl after the toss at 4:30 PM IST.
Pakistan is expected to lean on its leading names, with Shaheen Shah Afridi and Babar Azam highlighted as central figures for the home side. Australia will field a young squad built around Josh Inglis, who is identified as a leading influence for the visitors as they attempt to complete a comeback.
Notable practical omissions for viewers: there is no single TV partner named for India, so the Sports TV YouTube stream is the only confirmed live video option there; international viewers outside Pakistan and Australia should check local listings or rely on global live-score services named above.
Context matters: with the series tied at 1-1, this match is the only remaining chance for either side to win the tour. The toss, how the pitch plays later in the day, and any weather interruptions will shape what is otherwise a straightforward scheduling story: one match, one winner, one series champion.
Everything needed to watch is set — time, toss, venue and streaming links — but the outcome is not. The decisive question left unresolved until the final ball is bowled is which side will convert control into a series victory at Gaddafi Stadium on June 4.
