Pakistan recall Sajid after Abrar ruled out of Australia Test
Pakistan recalled Sajid Khan after fellow spinner Abrar Ahmed was ruled out of the first Test against Australia with a leg injury, selectors said Sunday.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said Abrar will remain with the team to receive treatment.
“Ahmed injured his leg around the knee during the tour game and his MRI suggests rest and rehabilitation, which means he will not be available for the first Test,” a PCB news release said.
Abrar will be assessed for the second Test in Melbourne from December 26, it said. The third Test is in Sydney from January 3.
Sajid, 30, played the last of his seven Tests against Australia in March 2022 and will fly to Perth to join the team before the match.
