For starters I think we can all agree in hoping that this Test isn't played on a pitch that resembles me driveway. Given that though, it's hard to draw too much from the match other than bowling on those sort of wickets isn't a lot of fun. Mitch Swepson is coming in for us, with Hazelwood missing out unluckily and probably for no better reason than he's a right armer. Pakistan will likely include Faheem Ashraf and Hasan Ali in their XI. The weather in Karachi also look like it won't be a factor as it was in Rawalpindi.
Pakistan (probable) 1 Abdullah Shafique, 2 Imam-ul-Haq, 3 Azhar Ali, 4 Babar Azam (capt), 5 Fawad Alam, 6 Mohammad Rizwan (wk), 7 Faheem Ashraf, 8 Nauman Ali, 9 Sajid Khan, 10 Hasan Ali, 11 Shaheen Shah Afridi
Australia 1 David Warner, 2 Usman Khawaja, 3 Marnus Labuschagne, 4 Steven Smith, 5 Travis Head, 6 Cameron Green, 7 Alex Carey (wk), 8 Mitchell Starc, 9 Pat Cummins (capt), 10 Mitchell Swepson, 11 Nathan Lyon
