ENG vs PAK 3rd Test, Cricket Tips: The tour of England has been disastrous for Pakistan cricket team. They have been humiliated both on and off the field, and they have only themselves to blame. After losing the second test, the PCB sacked head coach Sarfarz Khan and dropped seven players from the team.
Mike Hesson will take the charge, and a bunch of new players, including Saim Ayub, have joined the team. Can this help them to win the final game? The third test will kick off at 3:30 PM IST on September 9 at Edgbaston. England have added Shoaib Basher to the squad, but their pacers are bowling brilliantly, and they might need him for this game.
