In the announcement of their playing XI for the third Twenty20 International match against Australia, which is set to take place here later today, Pakistan rested captain Muhammad Rizwan.

The playing eleven, which will be captained by vice captain Salman Ali Agha, was revealed by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on X (previously Twitter).

In addition to Jahandad Khan replacing Naseem Shah, young wicketkeeper Haseebullah Khan has taken Mohammad Rizwan’s spot.

Babar Azam, Sahibzada Farhan, and Usman Khan are in the starting lineup, and the rest of the team is unaltered. Haseebullah, Salman and Irfan Khan, who played a blistering knock in the second T20I, will form the middle order.

Abbas Afridi and Jahandad will assist Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf in spearheading the pace attack, while Sufyan Muqeem is the lone specialist spinner in the lineup.

Australia leads the three-match T20I series 2-0, for those who are unaware. Pakistan set a goal of 94 in seven overs and lost by 29 runs in the first match, which was cut short.

The bowlers from Pakistan, inspired by Haris Rauf’s four-wicket haul, held Australia to 147 for 9 in the second Twenty20 International. The visitors lost by a slim margin of 13 runs, though, as they were bowled for just 134.

The following players are in Pakistan’s playing XI: Irfan Khan, Abbas Afridi, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Sufiyan Muqeem, Haris Rauf, Jahandad Khan, Haseebullah Khan (wk), Sahibzada Farhan, Usman Khan, and Salman Agha (c).
