Yet another chance could make Pakistan bring an end to its losing streak against West Indies in Test Series in the Caribbean; however, the visitors will now have to move forward from the humiliating defeat they suffered in Barbados Test.
The Host West Indies will bowl first in the third Test beginning at Windsor Park in Roseau shortly while Pakistan will set off for another five-day journey with two Changes.
Hasan Ali is making his Test debut replacing the debutant in Second Test match Shadab Khan whereas since Ahmed Shahzad is not fit, he is being replaced by Shan Masood.
Pakistan third Test Squad:
Azhar Ali, Shan Masood, Babar Azam, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq (Captain), Asad Shafiq, Sarfraz Ahmed (Wicket Keeper), Muhammad Abbas, Muhammad Amir, Hasan Ali , Yasir Shah
West Indies Third Test Squad:
Kieran Powell, Kraigg Brathwaite, Shimron Hetmyer, Shai Hope (Wicket Keeper), Roston Chase, Vishaul Singh, Shane Dowrich, Jason Holder (Captain), Devendra Bishoo, Alzarri Joseph, Shannon Gabriel
The three-match Test series is level 1-1 as Pakistan won the first Test at Kingston by 7 wickets while West Indies snatched an amazing victory at Bridgetown by 106 runs.
The Third Test between Pakistan and West Indies will most likely mark an end to splendid era of Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan.
Since October 2010 when Misbah-ul-Haq was appointed as Pakistan Test Captain, he has so far led Pakistan in 55 Tests out of which he enjoyed victory in 25 matches while suffered defeat in 19, becoming the most successful Pakistan’s Test Captain.
Likewise, Younis Khan has just completed his landmark 10,000 runs which are most by any Pakistani in the history of Test Cricket. Both the star players will no longer been seen again in any International match.
