As the PCB releases the squad for the NZ Tests, Hasan returns and Kamran is called up. For the impending historic Test series against New Zealand, which is set to begin on December 26, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) unveiled a 16-person squad on Wednesday. Uncapped middle-order batsman Kamran Ghulam was given his first call-up for the historic series in place of Azhar Ali, and veteran pacer Hasan Ali was called up in place of Mohammad Ali, who along with Faheem Ashraf was recommended to play in the present Pakistan Cup. While Haris Rauf, a right-arm speedster, has not been selected to the team and is still healing from an injury he suffered during the first Test against England. A shoulder issue forced the young bowler Naseem Shah to miss the tests in Multan and Karachi, but he has since been deemed healthy and is now a member of the squad.

The International Cricket Council on Tuesday assessed the surface used in the Brisbane Test, the opening of a three-match series between Australia and South Africa, as below ordinary.

Babar Azam, the captain of Pakistan, has accepted full responsibility for the team's demoralising 0-3 series loss to England and promised to lead the team's defence. After England won the last Test by an eight-wicket margin, Babar noted at a news conference that his team lacked experienced players, and that the loss of their key bowlers was a big setback. "We played some brilliant cricket in bits, but generally we did not finish the games well," he remarked. "And we, too, are really dissatisfied with the outcomes and the series loss." Since their main bowlers were out of shape, Babar said, his team thought that their strength was in the batting department.

Where does it come from? Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32. The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are al...
