Pakistan put Australia into bat in third Twenty20

Pakistan captain Mohammad Hafeez won the toss and sent Australia into bat in the third and final Twenty20 international at Dubai Stadium here on Monday.

Pakistan, enjoying an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the series, brought in Yasir Arafat in place of Sohail Tanveer as they resisted making too many changes ahead of this month's World Twenty20 in Sri Lanka.

Australia also made one change, bringing in Glenn Maxwell for veteran David Hussey.

Pakistan won the first match by seven wickets and then clinched the second in Super over -- both in Dubai.

Pakistan: Mohammad Hafeez (capt), Imran Nazir, Nasir Jamshed, Shoaib Malik, Umar Akmal, Kamran Akmal, Abdul Razzaq, Yasir Arafat, Umar Gul, Saeed Ajmal, Raza Hasan.

Australia: George Bailey (capt), Shane Watson, Pat Cummins, Dan Christian, Mitchell Starc, Glenn Maxwell, Michael Hussey, Brad Hogg, Matthew Wade, David Warner, Cameron White.

Umpires: Zameer Haider (PAK) and Ahsan Raza (PAK)
