Toss New Zealand opt to bat vs Pakistan
New Zealand won the toss and opted to bat first in the third T20I against Pakistan in Lahore. The visitors must win to remain alive in the five-match series, with Pakistan having taken a 2-0 lead. Having lost the first two matches while chasing, Tom Latham opted to set a target this time.
He made two changes to the side that lost the second game, reverting to the team to the one that had played the first, as Adam Milne returned in place of Henry Shipley. Also, Ish Sodhi took the place of Cole McConchie.
Pakistan made just the one change as they look to seal the series, with Naseem Shah replacing the rested Zaman Khan. This will be the last game of the series at the Gaddafi Stadium, before the series moves to Rawalpindi for the last two matches.
