PAK vs AUS Playing 11 for 3rd Test: Australia and Pakistan have announced playing 11s for the third and final PAK vs AUS Test, set to be played at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), starting from Wednesday (January 3) onwards. Pat Cummins-led Australia has declared an unaltered playing XI, while Pakistan has opted for two changes in their lineup.

For AUS vs PAK Sydney Test, Australia had initially chosen an unaltered 13-member squad, creating anticipation that all-rounder Cameron Green would be part of the playing 11. However, the team ultimately opted to maintain the same playing 11.

The focus will be around senior opener David Warner, who will play the last international Test match of his inspiring career in front of his home crowd at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
