DUBAI: Pakistan were once again without their skipper Shoaib Malik as stand-in captain Imad Wasim won the toss and sent Australia into bat in the fifth and final one-day international in Dubai on Sunday.
Malik suffered a rib injury and missed the last game on Friday, also in Dubai, and was rested once again for the final match.
Pakistan made only one change from the fourth one-day which Australia won by six runs to lead the series 4-0, bringing in fast bowler Mohammad Abbas for Mohammad Hasnain.
Australia replaced fast bowler Nathan Coulter-Nile with Jason Behrendorff.
