Pakistan vs England 3rd Test: Pakistan and England are set to square off against each other in the 3rd and the final Test-Match of the three-match Test-Series in the city of Rawalpindi from the 24th of October onwards.
The Shaheens brought an end to their poor run of form in home Test-Matches after defeating the Three Lions by a margin of 152 runs in the 2nd Test-Match in the city of Multan.
After securing a win in their first home Test-Match since February of 2021, the Shan Masood-led team have a golden opportunity of clinching the series with another dominating-display in the final match.
Shan Masood would have breathed a sigh of relief as under his captaincy, the National Team had lost six successive Test-Matches since he took over the leadership duties from Babar Azam. Currently struggling in the bottom half of the overall WTC 2023-2025 cycle standings, the Green Shirts have to improve on a lot of aspects if they want to improve their position in the standings.
After suffering an embarrassing defeat in the opening fixture of the series, the team-management of Pakistan took the bold decision of dropping Abrar Ahmed, Babar Azam, Naseem Shah and Shaheen Shah Afridi from the squad. The decision paid off as the home-side managed to equalise the series in the three-match Test-Series.
Pakistan have named an un-changed starting 11 for the upcoming Rawalpindi Test-Match in the meantime.
The Ben Stokes-led team on the other hand, bolstered their spin bowling unit by bringing in leg spinner Rehan Ahmed, in place of seamer Brydon Carse. Rehan joined the duo of Shoaib Bashir and Jack Leach in the spin bowling unit.
Back in 2022, the leg-spinner participated in the Test-Series versus Pakistan and has a good knowledge about the playing conditions of the nation.
