Inzamam and Razzaq out

Key players Inzamam-ul-Haq and Abdur Razzaq have been ruled out of the third and final Test between Pakistan and Australia. Captain Inzamam continues to be plagued by a back ailment, while Razzaq is suffering from a mystery illness.

The two join Mohammad Sami and Shoaib Malik, both of whom have already been ruled out with injury. Shahid Afridi and one of Mohammad Khalil or Mohammad Asif are likely to play in place of those two.

Yousuf Youhana will once again take up the captaincy duties as Pakistan attempt to avoid a 3-0 whitewash at the hands of their hosts.
