Pakistan skipper Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and decided to bat Friday in the tri-series final against New Zealand in Karachi.
Pakistan, who lost to New Zealand but beat South Africa in previous matches, brought in all-rounder Faheem Ashraf in place of pacer Mohammad Hasnain.
New Zealand, who won both their games, left out pace bowlers Ben Sears and Matt Henry, bringing in Jacob Duffy and Nathan Smith.
The final is a dress rehearsal for the opening match of the Champions Trophy between the same teams on Wednesday.
