'Have to follow medical advice': Babar doubtful for England opener
Pakistan captain Babar Azam remains doubtful for Wednesday’s first Test against England as he recovers from a finger injury. He bats briefly in the nets but will undergo further assessment before a match-day decision. Opener Shan Masood, also recovering from a fractured finger, trains fully and appears closer to returning. Pakistan pacer Mohammad Abbas says medical advice will guide both selections.
