England could become the first away team to win a Test series 3-0 in Pakistan as the captain hinted the 18-year-old leg-spinner could make his debut
Ben Stokes has challenged his England players to turn their tour of Pakistan into a historic clean sweep as he and Brendon McCullum ponder a debut for the 18-year-old Rehan Ahmed.
“So although the series here is done and we’ll still lift the trophy at the end regardless of the result, there’s still an extra bit knowing that we could be one of the very few teams that could walk away from Pakistan with a whitewash series. England’s dominant position this week brings with it the possibility of handing Ahmed his first Test cap, a move which would make the leg-spinner – 18 years and 126 days old on day one – England’s youngest Test cricketer, breaking the record held by Brian Close .
