Australian Captain Ricky Ponting won the toss and elected to field against Pakistan in a crucial match of Champions Trophy here on Wednesday. He says with the rain over the past couple of days there will be be plenty of moisture in the pitch which he hopes his bowlers will exploit. Australia are unchanged. Younis Khan isn't too bothered about losing the toss, saying it will be good to get some practice in conditions that could prove testing early on. Mohammad Asif is in, his first ODI in nearly 18 months. The impressive Mohammad Aamer gets a rest; the other change is that Imran Nazir has been left out for Misbah-ul-Haq. Shahid Afridi is likely to open the innings.
