Australia will tour the country for the first time in over a decade, and Pakistan's Fawad Alam hopes his side's bowlers can make a difference.
The three-Test series pits second against third in the World Test Championship, and 36-year-old Fawad is confident Pakistan's battery of pace bowlers and experienced spinners will be enough to topple an Australian side fresh from winning the Ashes.
The pace bowlers have been bowling well. The bowling combination of fast bowlers and spinners has worked well for Pakistan in recent Test matches.
Hasan Ali recently won the Pakistan Cricket Board's best bowler award and he has taken more than 40 wickets in the year, as well as Shaheen and Faheem Ashraf.
Sajid Khan and Nauman Ali have been bowling well. Shah is in the reserve squad.
We have a great bowling combination and we will try to catch Australia.
The last time Australia played in Pakistan, the series was won by Australia in a batter-dominated series.
The tourists won all three one-day internationals.
When Australia came to Pakistan in 1998 they played an one-off match at the National Stadium with a red ball and players wearing white kits.
I watched the match and will play in the middle.
