Sydney Cricket Ground: David Warner is all set to be given a hometown farewell from Test cricket after the left-handed opening batter was included in an unchanged Australia squad for the third and final Test against Pakistan starting at the Sydney Cricket Ground on January 3.

Warner said in June ahead of the World Test Championship final that he wanted to end his Test career at the Sydney Cricket Ground during the Australia-Pakistan third Test.

With Australia having an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-game series, it means the squad is unchanged and Warner, who made 164 in the first Test at Perth will finally have his wish come true.
