After securing a hard fought draw in the first Test at Dubai, Australia will be hoping for their first Test series victory in Asia since 2011 when they take on Pakistan in the second and last Test match at Abu Dhabi from October 16. Both Aussie openers Usman Khawaja and Aaron Finch were outstanding in Dubai and if they get support from middle order batsmen then Australia will have a good chance in Abu Dhabi Test.

On the other hand, Pakistan who dominated throughout the first Test match, will look to put some more extra efforts to return to winning ways after a disappointing Asia Cup outing. For Pakistan, inform opener Imam ul Haq will not play due to finger injury and Fakhar Zaman will make his Test debut while fast bowler Mir Hamza may replace Wahab Riaz.
