New Zealand have won the toss and elected to bowl first against Pakistan in the third T-20I being played at Pindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi on Sunday, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

New Zealand, who lost the second match by seven wickets at the same venue on Saturday, made two changes with pacer Will O'Rourke and allrounder Zac Foulkes making T20I debut.

They replaced Ben Lister and Ben Sears.

Babar Azam: The pitch looks much better from yesterday, looks like a typical Pindi pitch. We'd have batted first if he had won the toss. Sometimes I'm confused about which bowler I should use in different situations but everyone is ready to bowl and it's good to have that many options. Amir is not playing, Abbas Afridi is in.
