Adam Zampa admitted a depleted Australia face a "difficult challenge" in the one-day international series against Pakistan starting on Tuesday. Australia won the three-match Test series 1-0 after securing a well earned 115-run victory in the third match in Lahore on Friday. But they will miss regulars like David Warner, Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Glenn Maxwell -- all not in the squad for multiple reasons -- in the one-day series. To add to their woes, senior batsman Steve Smith was also ruled out of the limited-overs series with a recurrence of an elbow injury. But Zampa believes it's an opportunity to build the squad.
Australian bowlers were at their ruthless best on Day 5 of the third and final Test at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.

After the first and second Test in Rawalpindi and Karachi, respectively, had ended in draws, Cummins and Nathan Lyon produced one of the finest spells on a batting-friendly track, as Pakistan were skittled out for cheap.
