Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and chose to bowl in the second match of a three-game one-day series against Australia in Adelaide on Friday.
The hosts are leading 1-0 after securing a tense two-wicket victory in Melbourne on Monday. Pakistan fielded an unchanged lineup, with fast bowler Naseem Shah deemed fit after leaving the field during the first match due to apparent cramp.
Australia made a single change, bringing in veteran Josh Hazlewood in place of Sean Abbott to join his long-time pace partners Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc. Jake Fraser-McGurk and Matt Short will again open the batting in the absence of Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head, eager to improve after their early dismissals in the opening match.
