England Prepares for Series-Deciding Third Test

News summary

England is preparing for the series-deciding third Test against Pakistan by recalling leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed, joining Jack Leach and Shoaib Bashir in a three-pronged spin attack. The decision comes in anticipation of a spin-friendly pitch at Rawalpindi, where ground staff have been employing methods like raking and heating to prepare the surface. Ben Stokes is expected to play a larger bowling role despite his recent hamstring injury, with Gus Atkinson and Stokes as the primary pace options. Pakistan's spinners, Sajid Khan and Noman Ali, pose a significant challenge, having secured all 20 wickets in their previous victory. England's strategic adjustments reflect their emphasis on spin, aiming to counter Pakistan's tactics effectively and leverage Ahmed's past performance, where he secured a five-wicket haul on debut. The team hopes these changes will help them clinch the series after losing the second Test.
