Australia send Pakistan in to bat in T20I

Australian captain Aaron Finch won the toss and opted to field in the only Twenty20 International against Pakistan in Lahore on Tuesday.

Marnus Labuschagne, Ben Dwarshuis and Cameron Green are making Twenty20 international debuts for Australia while Pakistan brought in leg-spinner Usman Qadir.

Pakistan won the preceding One-Day International series 2-1 while Australia clinched the three-match Test series 1-0.

This is Australia's first tour of Pakistan since 1998, having previously refused to tour the country over security fears.
