Australia head coach Andrew McDonald has broken his silence on Australia’s lopsided defeat against Pakistan in the second ODI.

Despite missing key players such as Pat Cummins, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Marnus Labuschagne in the last ODI, McDonald vowed to continue his aggressive approach.

“We are going to Perth with a clear plan, a clear method. We are determined on the style we want to play. The most important part of this is that despite the change in the squad, we have won 16 of the last 19 matches. McDonald said: “We believe in the aggressive approach and although we did not perform well in Adelaide, we will continue to recover. “We aim,” he said. cricket.com.au.

He added: “It’s about finding the balance. Matt has shown in this series that he’s in charge early on, even if the results haven’t come. And Jake is on his journey; he’s good enough to play at this level, but setbacks are part of his growth.”

Pakistan ended a 28-year losing streak at the ground by defeating Australia by nine wickets in the second ODI on Friday. Pakistan last beat Australia in an ODI in Adelaide in 1996.

The final ODI is scheduled to be held at Perth Stadium in Perth on 10 November.
