The Pakistan Test squad kicked off its preparations for the crucial third and final Test match against England, set to take place from October 24 to 28 at the Pindi Stadium.

The training session, led by head coach Jason Gillespie, lasted three hours, as the home side gears up for a series decider with the series tied at 1-1.

Captain Shan Masood and head coach Gillespie inspected the pitch with head curator Tony Hemming, focusing on spin-friendly conditions.

The pitch is currently being treated to reduce moisture, and Pakistan is expected to leverage spin bowling, as they did in the Multan Test.

Sources suggest the strategy could be key to Pakistan’s success in the final showdown.

While Pakistan began its practice, England opted for a rest day ahead of their scheduled training sessions.

The series began with a victory for England in Multan, but Pakistan rebounded with a 152-run win in the second match.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has also announced that tickets for the Rawalpindi Test are now on sale, offering free entry on the first day for the premium category.

Ticket purchases will be required for the remaining four days.

With the series on the line, the upcoming Rawalpindi Test promises to be an intense battle as both teams vie for victory.
