Benoni – Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat first in the series deciding fifth and final one-day international (ODI) against South Africa at Willowmoore Park, in Benoni, on Sunday.

The Proteas made two changes to the team that lost by three wickets in the fourth ODI in Durban on Friday.

Quinton de Kock comes in for opening batsman Graeme Smith, who is unavailable due to a recurring ankle injury, and pace bowler Morne Morkel makes his return from a hamstring injury. Morkel makes his first appearance in the series, as a replacement for Rory Kleinveldt.

Pakistan named an unchanged team.

Teams: SA: Quinton de Kock, Hashim Amla, Colin Ingram, AB de Villiers, Farhaan Behardien, David Miller, Robin Peterson, Ryan McLaren, Morne Morkel, Dale Steyn, Lonwabo Tsotsobe.
