India vs England 3rd T20 International

Shreyas Iyer will be looking for his first win as India captain as the visitors take on England in the third T20 International of the five-match series at Trent Bridge in Nottingham today. Iyer won the coin flip for the match and invited Brook-led England to bat first.
Iyer, who took over the captaincy from Suryakumar Yadav during the Ireland series, is yet to win a match as India skipper. Ireland swept India 2-0, the first T20I against England was washed out, and India lost the second match at Old Trafford.
India seek first win under Iyer
India are yet to win a game on their ongoing tour of the UK and could make at least one change to their playing eleven for the third T20I. Leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi is likely to make way after a poor outing in Manchester, where he conceded 60 runs in four overs and bowled three no-balls.
Bishnoi’s 29-run over proved costly as England chased down 191 with an over to spare. With Axar Patel and Varun Chakravarthy already in the side, India’s decision to play a third specialist spinner at Old Trafford came under scrutiny.

Bishnoi likely to make way for extra pacer
At Trent Bridge, India are expected to bring in an additional fast bowler. Prince Yadav appears to be a stronger contender than Prasidh Krishna because of his ability to move the ball in the air and off the surface.
Arshdeep Singh picked up three wickets in the second T20I, including two in his opening over, but India’s attack failed to sustain pressure. Harry Brook’s 27-run assault on Arshdeep also hurt India at a crucial stage of England’s chase.
The third T20I will be a day-night fixture, and the Trent Bridge surface is expected to be good for batting. That could suit Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, whose debut is now out of the way, and the in-form Abhishek Sharma.
Abhishek, Sooryavanshi key to India’s batting plans
India’s batting unit has struggled to dominate English conditions despite posting competitive totals. The visitors scored 189 at Chester-le-Street and 190 at Old Trafford, but on both occasions the totals appeared to be 25 to 30 runs short.
Abhishek has been India’s most fluent batter, scoring 59 and 43 off 24 balls each in the two completed matches. Iyer and Ishan Kishan have got starts, while Tilak Varma played a useful cameo in the previous game. However, India will need more control in the middle overs against England’s pace-off options.
Sam Curran, Liam Dawson, Will Jacks and Adil Rashid have used slower deliveries effectively, while India’s spinners have not had the same impact. Chakravarthy’s form has also dipped since the T20 World Cup.

England retain winning combination
England have announced an unchanged playing eleven for the third T20I. Brook’s side lead the series 1-0 after their win in Manchester and will look to extend their advantage at Trent Bridge.
Jacob Bethell and Tom Banton played key roles in the chase in the second T20I, while England’s bowling attack has kept India from running away with the game despite good batting surfaces.
