South Africa fast bowler Kyle Abbott was selected for his ODI debut, picked ahead of Morne Morkel. Abbot made a stunning Test debut last month when he took nine wickets in man of the match performance against Pakistan.
Pakistan included just two specialist seamers in Umar Gul and Junaid Khan with Saeed Ajmal, Shahid Afridi, Mohammad Hafeez and Shoaib Malik giving them spinning options.
South Africa whitewashed Pakistan 3-0 in the Test series before the visitors clinched the Twenty20 series 1-0 after the first game was washed out.
Teams:
South Africa: AB de Villiers (Capt.), Graeme Smith, Hashim Amla, Colin Ingram, Faf du Plessis, Farhaan Behardien, Ryan McLaren, Robin Peterson, Rory Kleinveldt, Kyle Abbott, Lonwabo Tsotsobe.
Pakistan: Misbah-ul-Haq (Capt.), Nasir Jamshed, Mohammad Hafeez, Younis Khan, Asad Shafiq, Shoaib Malik, Kamran Akmal, Shahid Afridi, Umar Gul, Saeed Ajmal, Junaid Khan.
