The Pakistani team based in the Indian city of Bengaluru took a day of rest.


Bengaluru: Before the ICC ODI World Cup encounter against Australia, the Pakistani cricket team received an uplifting report on the well-being of two of their essential players
Opening batsman Fakhar Zaman and leg-spinner Usama Mir have made a swift recovery from their respective ailments.
Fakhar Zaman, who had been grappling with knee pain, and Usama Mir, who was sidelined due to fever.
Sources close to the team have confirmed that both players are now fully fit and raring to represent their country in the match against Australia, scheduled for Friday, October 20, in Bengaluru.
The inclusion of Fakhar Zaman and Usama Mir in the lineup is poised to provide the Pakistani side with a substantial boost.
The Pakistani team management and fans alike are breathing a sigh of relief as they anticipate these players contributing significantly to the squad's chances in the forthcoming match.
While the team enjoyed a day of rest in Bengaluru on Monday, some players took to the hotel gym for training sessions to maintain their physical condition.
The team's practice session is scheduled for today, running from 6 pm to 9 pm, as they gear up for the all-important clash against Australia.
