No Warner vs. Afridi in the farewell test as Pakistan mull resting pacer
The leading pacer of Pakistan, Shaheen Afridi, may be rested in the third Test match against Australia in Sydney. According to reports from the news channel, the Pakistan team is thinking of giving rest to their star bowler if Pakistan loses their second Test match starting on December 26.
Pakistan are behind Australia in the three-match Test series by 0-1, as Australia defeated them in the opening match by a huge margin of 360 runs. Pakistan team morale is so low that, according to reports, management is thinking of giving breaks to their key players to be fresh for the next T20I series against New Zealand starting on January 12.
Shaheen Afridi will lead the Pakistan team in the five-match T20I series. Pakistan will play their third Test in Sydney from January 3 to January 7. Shaheen did not perform well in the first test at Perth Stadium. He had taken only two wickets in both innings.
