Pakistan will face Australia in the first Test at Dubai on Wednesday. Australia whitewashed Pakistan 3-0 in the ODI series, but were convincingly beaten in the warm-up match against Pakistan A. They’ll be looking to win this series, and grab the No 1 Test ranking from South Africa.

For this match, Australia is likely to float in two spinners in the form of Steve O’ Keefe and Nathan Lyon would play a prime role in the spin department.  The presence of Mitchell Johnson will also be crucial for Australia. Mitchell Marsh who was absent from the side due to injury is likely to make Test debut for the side. While, David Warner and Michael Clarke have a lot to do as both of them are coming out of injuries.

Taufeeq Umar makes a comeback in the Pakistan Test squad and Younis Khan who was left out for the ODIs is also back with the team for the Tests. Pakistan off-spinner holds to record of most wickets in Dubai and it is an indication of the spin and grip present in the Dubai surface. Pakistan bring along a rookie spinner Yasir Shah, who will step on the boots of Saeed Ajmal. Shah has only played a single ODI for Pakistan and yet to play a Test for Pakistan. The good news for Pakistan will be the presence of Mohammad Hafeez in the squad who makes a comeback after a hand injury he suffered during a practice session.

The presence of senior names in the Pakistan squad garnished with some talented youngsters give Pakistan team a revamped and a promising look. While the Australian side which struggled against reverse swing in Sharjah will have a lot to prove.
