Rawalpindi (Web Desk/Agencies): England has announced their lineup for the third Test against Pakistan at Pindi Stadium, starting Thursday.
There are two changes from the second Test in Multan: seamer Gus Atkinson is back, and leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed makes his return after last playing in February against India. Durham’s Brydon Carse and Matthew Potts are left out this time.
With Atkinson bolstering the bowling attack and Ahmed adding spin options, England seems well-equipped for this match.
England’s XI for the third Test: Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes (C), Jamie Smith, Gus Atkinson, Rehan Ahmed, Jack Leach and Shoaib Bashir.
