Amir, Shadab back in Pakistan squad for SA Tests

LAHORE:Pakistan selectors Friday recalled fast bowler Mohammad Amir in the 16-member squad for the three-match Test tour of South Africa starting later this month.

Amir was dropped from the side after failing to get a single wicket in three Asia Cup matches in United Arab Emirates (UAE) in September this year.

Also staging comebacks are leg-spinner Shadab Khan and opener Fakhar Zaman, both of whom missed the series against New Zealand due to injuries.
