Pakistan won toss, chose to bat v England

Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat in the one-off T20I against England in Cardiff.

Play is expected to begin in dry conditions on a green-looking pitch.

Ben Duckett is set to open for England alongside James Vince, the pair added to the squad after Alex Hales' axing. Duckett makes his T20I debut, coming into the team after Dawid Malan hurt his groin while batting in the ODI against Ireland on Friday. Phil Salt, who was added to the squad following Milan's injury, will remain on the sidelines.

Also playing their first T20I matches after making their ODI debuts in the win over Ireland are Jofra Archer and Ben Foakes. Chris Jordan, Player of the Series in the T20s against West Indies in the Caribbean earlier this year, comes into the England side, instead of Liam Plunkett, who took four wickets in the one-dayer against Ireland.

Pakistan have handed debuts to Imam-ul-Haq and Mohammad Hasnain, in a largely settled T20I team - the world's No.1 team in this format.

England: 1 James Vince, 2 Ben Duckett, 3 Joe Root, 4 Eoin Morgan (capt), 5 Joe Denly, 6 Ben Foakes (wk), 7 David Willey, 8 Adil Rashid, 9 Jofra Archer, 10 Chris Jordan, 11 Tom Curran

Pakistan: 1 Fakhar Zaman, 2 Babar Azam, 3 Imam-ul-Haq, 4 Haris Sohail, 5 Asif Ali, 6 Sarfaraz Ahmed (capt/wk), 7 Faheem Ashraf, 8 Imad Wasim, 9 Hasan Ali, 10 Shaheen Shah Afridi, 11 Mohammad Hasnain
