Pakistan have named their test squad for upcoming series.
Naseem Shah not named as he is still recovering from a shoulder injury that kept him out of the World Cup and Haris Rauf made himself unavailable for selection.

Harris still has at least another 2 opportunities ahead of him at test level to prove he isn’t up to it.
Why put Green in there?

Marsh didn't bat well at the Oval, and a few more failures might suggest a reversion to the mean and time to look at someone else.

But I agree, Green needs runs to be that someone else.

Not sure.

Would be a difficult situation with both being away so often


Edit. Just googled it and they just bought a $20 million home three days ago so I doubt it.

25 million actually Beyond the house, its add-ons include everything from equestrian facilities, stables, a tennis court, swimming pool, cabana, pavilion, at least one fire pit, a fairly impressive chicken coop, a kitchen garden, and some of the suburb's best district views.

Believe their old house sold for about 9 mllion :shock:
