PAK vs ENG Match Prediction & Analysis

Host Pakistan and England are ready to face off in the series decider at Rawalpindi, starting from Thursday (24th October).

With the series evenly poised at 1-1, Pakistan will aim to select their strongest playing XI for this crucial match. Captain Shan Masood is expected to make strategic changes for this series decider.

Ben Stokes-led England needs to correct their mistakes from the previous game and deliver an improved performance to clinch the series.

Pakistan Preview

The focus will be on the spin duo of Sajid Khan and Noman Ali, who both delivered scintillating performances to help Pakistan level the three-match Test series.

Making his Test debut, Kamran Ghulam scored an impressive 118 runs on a turning wicket and will be looking to continue his form in this crucial match. The batting department will rely on openers Saim Ayub and Abdullah Shafique, along with captain Shan Masood, Kamran Ghulam, Salman Ali Agha, Saud Shakeel, and wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan to deliver the bulk of the runs.

Aamer Jamal will also be in focus, especially after he didn’t bowl much during the second Test at Multan.

As for team composition, Pakistan plans to field three spinners—Sajid Khan, Noman Ali, and Zahid Mehmood—and one pacer in Aamer Jamal. However, they might consider adding Mir Hamza in place of Zahid Mehmood if the conditions favor seamers.

Pakistan Predicted Playing XI:Saim Ayub, Abdullah Shafique, Shan Masood (c), Kamran Ghulam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Agha Salman, Aamer Jamal, Noman Ali, Sajid Khan, Zahid Mehmood / Mir Hamza.

England Preview

England may make one change, bringing in Gus Atkinson for Matthew Potts in this series decider.

The visitors will rely on key players like Joe Root, in-form opener Ben Duckett, Harry Brook, captain Ben Stokes, and Ollie Pope to anchor their innings.

In the previous match, Ben Duckett displayed his technique and temperament with a superb century against Pakistan. Apart from Duckett, no other batsman managed to score a half-century for England.

England will continue with a balanced bowling attack featuring two pacers—Gus Atkinson and Brydon Carse—and two spinners—Jack Leach and Shoaib Bashir. Joe Root may bowl his part-time spin if necessary.
