Melbourne [Australia], February 16 (ANI): Mark Steketee has replaced pacer Michael Neser in the Australia squad for the Pakistan tour.
Australia will tour Pakistan for the first time since 1998 for three Test matches, three One-Day Internationals, and one T20 International.
Uncapped fast bowler Brendan Doggett has also been named in the squad as a standy by player for the tour.
