Pakistan is getting ready for the third Test against England, starting October 24, at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, where they are preparing a pitch that will favor spin bowling.
After their successful strategy in Multan, where they made a strong comeback with a 152-run win following an innings defeat in the first Test, the team is applying similar methods to ensure the pitch helps their spinners.
To dry the surface, Pakistan is using large fans, heaters, and windbreakers. This technique not only aids their own spin bowlers but may also benefit the English spinners. The pitch is expected to dry out and crack as the match goes on, which will make spin bowling more effective.
Winning the toss will be crucial for either team, as the conditions could change significantly as the game progresses. If Pakistan’s spinners can take advantage of the dry and cracked surface, they could put England under pressure, especially if they have to bat last on a deteriorating pitch.
