Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat in the fifth and final one-day international against South Africa at Willowmoore Park on Sunday. Pakistan fielded the same team that won the fourth match in Durban by three wickets to level the series at 2-2. South Africa made two changes. Fast bowler Morne Morkel returned to action for the first time since suffering a hamstring injury in the second Test match last month, replacing Rory Kleinveldt. South Africa were without opening batsman and Test captain Graeme Smith because of what was described as a chronic left ankle injury which kept him off the field for most of Pakistan?s run chase in Durban. He was replaced by 20-year-old left-hander Quinton de Kock. Teams: South Africa: AB de Villiers (capt, wkt), Hashim Amla, Quinton de Kock, Colin Ingram, David Miller, Farhaan Behardien, Ryan McLaren, Robin Peterson, Dale Steyn, Morne Morkel, Lonwabo Tsotsobe. Pakistan: Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), Mohammad Hafeez, Imran Farhat, Kamran Akmal (wkt), Younis Khan, Shoaib Malik, Shahid Afridi, Saeed Ajmal, Junaid Khan, Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Irfan. Umpires: Billy Bowden (NZL), Johan Cloete (RSA) TV umpire: Kumar Dharmasena (SRI) Match referee: Andy Pycroft (ZIM) From: AFP
