India and England are set to play the third T20I of the five-match series at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday. The series is firmly poised at 1-1 after the end of the first two matches andboth teams will look to take a lead in the series.
India, after losing the series opener, bounced back strong courtesy fine half-centuries from debutant Ishan Kishan and skipper Virat Kohli. However, with the match set to be played on a black-soil pitch, spinners are likely to come into play.
It would be interesting to see whether Indian opener Rohit Sharma gets a chance to feature in the match after being rested in the first two T20Is. KL Rahul getting dismissed for 1 and 0 is a concern for the Men in Blue but they are likely to give Rahul another match.
Whereas for England, Moeen Ali might play the game with one of the seamers expected to be rested for the match.
