Mohammad Rizwan: Will bat first, looks like a good surface. I want to put up a good target. Every match is important in ICC events, we will keep things normal. The boys are all used to these conditions, we have done well here and want to give our best today. We lost our last game, but that's in the past for us. One change - Fakhar is out, and Imam is in.

Rohit Sharma: Doesn't really matter (what he would've chosen if he had won the toss), they won the toss so we'll bowl first. Looks similar to the last game, the surface is on the slower side. We have an experienced unit in batting, so we know what we need to do if the pitches get slower. Need an overall performance from the team - with bat and ball. The last match wasn't an easy one for us, which is always nice. It's good to be under pressure and test yourself. The same team is playing.
