Former England captain Alec Stewart says that Pakistan will be enjoying advantage against England as the UAE pitches will support them when both the teams face each other in the Test series beginning
from 13 October. He said it will be hard as Pakistan’s record is good here. He
noted he expects pitches would be full of spin and do not have any help for the
pace bowlers so Pakistan will be starting as favorites and they are a good
team.
He added no one can say with confidence how Pakistan
team will perform but if suitable Pakistan team plays then they will be tough
for England who are a developing side and one that is becoming better and
better. Former England captain explained they are a young and talented team but
they will have to work hard because there will be lot of spin and there will be
need to judge who can play spin better, England or Pakistan.
He said it will be a good series and it would have
become more interesting if Mohammad Amir had been playing. He added if he had
been included and bowled how he had bowled when he appeared on the
international scenario then he could have boosted the bowling of Pakistan side.
