India and England will face in the deciding T20 at the M
Chinaswamy Stadium, Bangalore to be played tomorrow. The pitch is expected to
help the batsmen and with the series on line it promises to be mouthwatering
clash. After winning the second T20 by 5 runs, India will be looking win the
series while England would love to end the tour on a high. Here we look at the
predicted XI for 3rd T20.
1.
KL Rahul
In the second T20 match at Nagpur where other Indian batsmen
struggled, KL Rahul scored 71 runs which helped India to post 144. KL Rahul
looked in excellent touch playing the spinners well. With the third T20 to be
played in his home ground, KL Rahul would be hoping to make a big score and
help India to win the series.
2.
Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli played attacking strokes in the second T20 at
Nagpur before getting out for 21 runs. Playing on his home ground at the IPL,
Kohli would love to put a dominating display with bat and help India to win the
series.
3.
Suresh Raina
Suresh Raina did not have great second T20 match. He was
dismissed for 7 playing 10 balls which did not help India’s cause. With a good
batting pitch, Suresh Raina would be hoping to play a big role with the bat and
ball.
4.
Yuvraj Singh
Yuvraj Singh was not at his best during the second T20 match
at Nagpur. He scored 4 runs off 12 balls which made the life tough for Indian
batsmen. If Yuvraj Singh gets a chance, he needs to prove his credentials with
bat and play with positive attitude.
5.
MS Dhoni
MS Dhoni did not get many balls during the second T20. He
came after Manish Pandey and played only 7 balls. MS Dhoni should get few overs
to settle. If he gets overs to play then India has a chance to post a massive
total.
6.
Manish Pandey
Manish Pandey came after the fall of Yuvraj Singh wicket. He
was not able to hit big strokes. In the end overs he hit a six which helped
India. Manish Pandey should be sent according to the situation and if gets to
bat then it is good for team chances.
7.
Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya did face only 3 balls and also could not get
any over during the second T20 at Nagpur. Pandya could be used as an option.
Pandya needs to play a big role in tomorrow’s deciding T20 match.
8.
Yuzvendra Chahal
Yuzvendra Chahal bowled the first over in the second T20
match at Nagpur. He did not pick any wickets giving away 33 runs in 4 overs.
Playing on his home ground at IPL, Chahal would play a key role in helping
India to pick wickets and also control the run flow.
9.
Amit Mishra
Amit Mishra bowled a brilliant spell in the second T20 match
at Nagpur. He came in 7th over and gave away 18 runs in the first
two overs. He took the wicket of Eoin Morgan and bowled Ben Stokes but it
turned out to be no ball. Amit Mishra will play a key role in taking wickets.
110.
Ashish Nehra
Ashish Nehra had a brilliant day in the second T20 match at
Nagpur. Defending 145, Ashish Nehra picked two important wickets. In the last
few overs, Nehra provided the wicket. Despite giving runs in the 19th
over, Nehra gave only 28 runs taking 3 wickets. If Nehra could provide early
wickets then India has a chance of winning the match.
111.
Jasprit Bumrah
Jasprit Bumrah was best during the second T20 at Nagpur. He
did not bowl well in the first two overs but in the 18th over he
gave away just 3 runs. With 8 runs needed, Bumrah gave away only 2 runs and
picked 2 wickets also. If Bumrah could do the same thing, India would are
assured of a series win.
