Returning England captain Eoin Morgan won the toss and chose to bat first against Pakistan as the tourists bid for a 3-0 Twenty20 series clean sweep at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

Morgan, back in place of Alex Hales after being rested for the second match in Dubai, confirmed two other changes - Chris Jordan and Moeen Ali coming in for Liam Plunkett and Stephen Parry.

James Vince therefore got his chance to open the batting, in Hales' absence.

Pakistan made three changes, as they try to stave off the whitewash.

Twenty20 debutant Amir Yamin, pace bowler Mohammad Irfan and wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan came in respectively for Sohaib Maqsood and rested pair Sarfraz Ahmed and Wahab Riaz.
