Pakistan win toss, opt to bat first against Australia in second Test

Dubai (Agencies): Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first against Australia in the second and final Test in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday.

The tourists managed to draw the first Test after the nail-biting contest. Currently, the two matches series is level at 0-0 and so the test can be a decider.

Teams:

Pakistan: Sarfraz Ahmed (captain), Azhar Ali, Fakhar Zaman, Imam-ul-Haq, Babar Azam, Asad Shafiq, Haris Sohail, Usman Salahuddin, Yasir Shah, Shadab Khan, Bilal Asif, Mohammad Abbas, Hasan Ali, Wahab Riaz, Faheem Ashraf, Mir Hamza, Mohammad Rizwan and Mohammad Hafeez.
