Toss Pakistan chose to bat against UAE
Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first in what is their last group game. A victory tonight would ensure safe passage to the final for Salman Agha's side. They made two changes to the team that lost to Afghanistan on Tuesday, with Salman Mirza and Abrar Ahmed coming in for Haris Rauf and Sufiyan Muqeem.
UAE captain Mohammad Waseem admitted he needed to take extra responsibility along with some of the senior batters if they were to upset Pakistan. The UAE are the only side yet to win a match in the series, and need to win today to stay alive. They also made two alterations, with opener Alishan Sharafu coming in for Mohammad Zohain, and pace bowler Muhammad Jawad for Saghir Khan.
