Toss Pakistan chose to bat vs England
Pakistan will bat first after winning the toss in the series-deciding third T20I at Old Trafford. Babar Azam called correctly, as he did at Headingley, but this time, opted to set England a target instead of trying to chase one, having fallen to a 45-run defeat in the previous game.
Pakistan will look to round out their tour of England on a positive note, having earlier succumbed in the ODI series to a 3-0 defeat.
England: 1 Jason Roy, 2 Jos Buttler (wk), 3 Dawid Malan, 4 Jonny Bairstow, 5 Moeen Ali, 6 Eoin Morgan (capt), 7 Liam Livingstone, 8 David Willey, 9 Chris Jordan, 10 Adil Rashid, 11 Saqib Mahmood
Pakistan: 1 Mohammad Rizwan (wk), 2 Babar Azam (capt), 3 Fakhar Zaman, 4 Sohaib Maqsood, 5 Mohammad Hafeez, 6 Shadab Khan, 7 Imad Wasim, 8 Hasan Ali, 9 Usman Qadir, 10 Mohammad Hasnain, 11 Shaheen Shah Afridi
