The Pakistan cricket team toured Australia in November 2024 to play the Australia cricket team.[1][2] The tour consisted of three One Day International (ODI) and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[3][4] In March 2024, the Cricket Australia (CA) confirmed the fixtures for the tour, as a part of the 2024–25 home international season.[5]

Cricket Australia named Josh Inglis as interim captain for the T20I series against Pakistan.[10] Captain Pat Cummins, Steve Smith, Josh Hazlewood, Marnus Labuschagne and Mitchell Starc were all rested for the third ODI, to prepare for the Border–Gavaskar Trophy,[11] with pacers Xavier Bartlett, Spencer Johnson and wicketkeeper-batter Josh Philippe added to the squad and Lance Morris named as cover.[12] In the absence of Pat Cummins, Josh Inglis was named captain of Australia in the third and final ODI.[13] On 10 November, Cooper Connolly was ruled out of the T20I series due to a hand fracture.[14]
