Naseem Shah was ruled out of the third and final Test against England.
The Pakistan cricket board announced on Tuesday that Shah, 19, will miss the final Test against England in Karachi due to a niggle in his bowling shoulder.
PCB also stated that the speedster will now travel to Lahore for another assessment at the National High-Performance Centre before beginning rehabilitation.
Shah’s injury comes just a week after key pacer Haris Rauf was ruled out of the home series against England due to an injury. Earlier, main pacer Shaheen Afridi was ruled out due to a knee injury.
The injury of leading pacers also opened an opportunity for bowlers from outside the squad initially named for the series.
On Tuesday, the visitors clinched their first series win in Pakistan since 2000 after taking the first and second games. Babar-led team Pakistan and England will travel to Karachi tomorrow for the last game.
