Australia have won the toss and opted to field first against New Zealand in the finals of the Twenty20 World Cup 2021 in Dubai.
Skipper Aaron Finch at the toss said he believes the pitch is “a bit drier than the one from the other night but hopefully it skids on”.
Australia have named an unchanged XI.
Meanwhile, New Zealand captain Kane Williamson admitted he would have also bowled first, had he won the toss.
He said, “Who knows about the dew but important we focus on that task at hand, with the bat first and trying to get a competitive total.”
New Zealand have made one change with Tim Seifert coming into the playing XI in place of Devon Conway.
