The second match of the three-Test series between Pakistan and Australia is to be played in Karachi. A day before the match, Australian captain Pat Cummins has announced his playing XI for the second Test. Mitchell Swepson has been replaced in the team in place of Josh Hazlewood. The 28-year-old spinner will debut in the Karachi Test against Pakistan.

 

Pat Cumming said of Swepson, "It will be a little special that someone like Swepson will debut tomorrow who has grown up copying Warne's action. He has been in the squad for a long time, but never got a chance to play." Found. Now he is all set."

 

Swepson has been a part of the Australian team for quite some time and was always seen as a backup to Nathan Lyon, but considering the Karachi pitch, Cummins has decided to play both Lyon and Swepson together. Swepson will be the first leg-spinner since Bryce McGain in 2009 to debut for Australia.

 

Let us tell you, the first match of the series was played in Rawalpindi and this match was a draw. On a flat pitch like a road, both the teams had scored fiercely, while the bowlers appeared desperate. Only 14 wickets had fallen in 5 days. The match referee had described this pitch in Rawalpindi as below average and the Rawalpindi pitch has also been given a demerit point by the ICC.

 

Australia Playing XI: David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Cameron Green, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins (c), Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Swepson
