England and Pakistan Play Third Test with Pakistan Introducing Three DebutantsPreviousNext

England and Pakistan are competing in the third Test of their series at Edgbaston, Birmingham. England's captain Joe Root chose to bowl first, fielding an unchanged team. Pakistan made four changes, including three Test debutants: wicketkeeper Ghazi Ghori and pace-bowling all-rounders Mohammad Imran Randhawa and Razaullah. Saim Ayub replaced Imam-ul-Haq as an opener. Pakistan seeks a positive finish after losing the first two Tests and making squad and coaching staff changes following heavy defeats.
