The Pakistan cricket selectors have brought back star pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi for the first Test against England set to take place in Multan from October 7-11. The selectors announced a 15-player squad on Tuesday bringing in left-arm spinner Noman Ali for the injured Khurram Shahzad. 

Afridi was dropped from the squad following the first Test against Bangladesh. The left-arm pacer was considered one of the reasons for Pakistan`s debacle in the opening Test as the four pacers selected failed to make an impact.
