Pakistani skipper Babar Azam hit a hat-trick against Australia as he won the third consecutive toss in the three-match one-day series and on all three occasions decided to bowl first.

Also on Saturday, Babar Azam won the toss again and invited Australia to bat first in the third and decisive one-dayer being played at Qaddafi Stadium in Lahore.

Pakistan has made one change to its team that won the second one-dayer against the visitors with Asif Ali replacing Saud Shakeel.

Australia have confirmed they'll be making one change with Jason Behrendorff, the left-arm quick, coming in for Mitchell Swepson.
