Spin Battle: Pakistan Holds the Edge as England Aims for a Crucial Win

The Hindu  

Pakistan retains its spin-heavy team for the final Test against England. Both sides anticipate a dry wicket that will favor the slow bowlers. Left-arm spinner Noman Ali and off-spinner Sajid Khan claimed all 20 England wickets in the second test, while leg-spinner Zahid Mahmood bowled six wicketless overs in England's first innings. The wicket has encouraged England to recall Rehan Ahmed as its third specialist slow option to go with Jack Leach's left-arm spin and the off-spin of Shoaib Bashir. The match is scheduled to continue on Thursday.
