India have once again made a change to their playing XI. Rohit Sharma comes in place of Suryakumar Yadav, which means Ishan Kishan will not open the innings in this encounter.

England have also made just one change from the team that lost to India in the previous game. Mark Wood has recovered from injury and returns to the side in place of Tom Curran.

India bounced back to level the series 1-1 last time out. The hosts beat England by seven wickets in the second IND vs ENG T20I, with Ishan Kishan’s stunning debut paving the way for a deserved win.

The pitch for the third IND vs ENG T20I is a red soil one, which is expected to turn more than the surfaces for the first two games. Both India and England will target a win to take the lead in the five-match IND vs ENG series.
