“The left-handed batsman took part in a warm-up session prior to the start of second day’s play,” added the spokesman.
Azhar Ali-led Pakistan face England in a three-Test series starting at Old Trafford, Manchester on Aug 5. The Test series is followed by a three-game T20 series between the two countries.
