Shaheen, Naseem, Jamal Return To Pakistan’s Playing XI For Multan Test
Shaheen Shah Afridi: Fast-bowling trio of Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah and Aamer Jamal have returned to Pakistan’s playing eleven for the first Test against England, starting at the Multan Cricket Stadium on Monday.
The pace trio's return comes in the backdrop of Pakistan aiming to end its 10-match winless streak in Tests at home. While left-arm fast-bowler Shaheen and right-arm pacer Naseem didn’t play the second Test against Bangladesh at Rawalpindi, pace bowling all-rounder Jamal missed the entire series due to injury.
Pakistan’s last Test victory on home soil came against South Africa in a 95-run win at Rawalpindi in February 2021, and that drought extended with when the Shan Masood-led side were consigned to a surprise 2-0 defeat to Bangladesh in Rawalpindi.
