Pakistan skipper Shaheen Shah Afridi has won the toss and opted to bowl against England in the ODI tri-series match at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium on Sunday.
Shadab Khan has returned to the side, and Razaullah has made his international debut.
Shaheen Afridi confirmed the exclusion of Naseem Shah due to a finger injury, while Faheem Ashraf has been left out. England also made two changes, handing Henry Crocombe his ODI debut in place of Josh Tongue.
Pakistan players are wearing pink kits as part of the Pakistan Cricket Board’s breast cancer awareness campaign.
Pakistan have won both their opening matches and need another victory to secure a place in the October 31 final. England, having lost both previous games, face possible elimination with another defeat.
The visitors are coming off a two-wicket loss to Sri Lanka despite scoring 429-4 in Rawalpindi. Sri Lanka have won one of their two matches in the three-team tournament.
