AUS vs PAK: After losing the series, Pakistan showed the way out to Afridi and Imam, Saim Ayub will debut in the third test

The third and last match of the three-match Test series being played between world champions Australia and Pakistan will be played at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Pakistan cricket team has announced its playing eleven for this match to be played from January 3. A shocking decision has been taken in this. Veteran fast bowler and vice-captain Shaheen Shah Afridi has not been included in the playing 11.

Captain Shan Masood has confirmed on the eve of the match that Shaheen Shah Afridi will not play in this match. Young opener Saim Ayub will debut in this match. Pakistan has already lost the series after losing the first two matches. In such a situation, the team management has given rest to Afridi under workload management. Fast bowler Sajid Khan has got a chance in his place. Apart from this, Saim Ayub is being given a chance in place of Imam ul Haq. Imam has been flopping continuously since the first few matches. In such a situation, this young batsman has got a chance to debut.

Pakistan's playing eleven for the third test - Shan Masood (captain), Saim Ayub, Abdullah Shafiq, Babar Azam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan (wicketkeeper), Salman Ali Aga, Sajid Khan, Hasan Ali, Mir Hamza and Aamir Jamal.
