ISLAMABAD: Pakistan skipper Shaheen Shah Afridi elected to field first after winning the toss against Bangladesh on Sunday, as the two sides lock horns in Mirpur for the third and final One Day International match of the series.
Pakistan and Bangladesh are tied 1-1 in the three-match series after Afridi’s men thrashed the hosts by 128 runs on Friday. Earlier, Bangladesh defeated Pakistan by eight wickets in the first match of the series.
“Pakistan have won the toss and elected to field first,” the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said in a statement.
Pakistan have made two changes to the playing XI, with Shamyl Hussain and Talat Hussain out with injuries. In their place, Afridi has included Ghazi Ghori and Saad Masood.
Earlier, Pakistan batter Salman Ali Agha was officially reprimanded for breaching the International Cricket Council’s code of conduct on Saturday after he threw his gloves and helmet during the second ODI against Bangladesh in Dhaka.
