Pakistan are expected to inducted uncapped Ammad Butt and once-capped Khushdil Shah into their playing eleven against Bangladesh in the third T20I scheduled to be played at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium today — if rain permits.

Khushdil, a middle-order batsman, played one T20I for Pakistan in the series against Australia last November. He had scored just 8 runs on debut.

Butt, a bowling all-rounder, has been picked on the back of his impressive performances in domestic circuit.

The two, as per sources privy to the matter, are to be given chances today as the series against Bangladesh has already been wrapped up 2-0 buy the hosts.

They are expected to replace Iftikhar Ahmed and Imad Wasim in the line-up.
