Mohammad Talha had a niggle with his knee leading up to the second 4 day game. It's not serious but he was left out of the game to avoid aggravating the injury into something worse. He should be fine to play the first ODI in Brisbane.
Azhar Ali was hard done by in the first innings of the second 4 day game after being given out when the ball hit his elbow. Umar Akmal and Sarfaraz Ahmed have a big day ahead of them tomorrow if they want to avoid a large defeat.
