India Face Must-Win Third T20I Against England to Keep Series Alive

India national cricket team will take on England cricket team in the crucial third T20I at Trent Bridge on Tuesday, with the visitors needing a victory to keep the five-match series alive. After the opening game was washed out due to rain, England secured a convincing win in the second T20I to take a 1-0 lead. Led by Shreyas Iyer, India will be under pressure to bounce back after also struggling in the recent T20I series against Ireland. Although India posted competitive totals of 189 and 190 in the previous two matches, the batting unit will need to deliver a stronger performance against England's varied bowling attack.

Much of the spotlight will be on 15-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who made his international debut in the previous match and is expected to open alongside Abhishek Sharma. The middle order is likely to feature Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer, Tilak Varma and Shivam Dube. India could make one change to the bowling attack, with leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi likely to make way for young pacer Prince Yadav after an expensive outing in Manchester. The match begins at 10:00 PM IST and will be telecast live on DD Sports, while live streaming will be available on Sony LIV and JioHotstar.
