IND vs ENG, 3rd T20I: T20I series is being played between India and England. The result of the first two matches was in India’s favor and now both the teams will face each other in the third match. The third match of the 5-match T20I series will be played in Rajkot on January 28 from 7 pm, in which Team India will be eyeing to capture the series with a third consecutive win.
At the same time, the visiting English team will have the last chance to avoid defeat in the series. England may not have won the T20I series so far, but in the third match to be played in Rajkot, English captain Jos Buttler will have a great chance to create history.
Nitish Kumar Reddy and Rinku Singh will not be able to play today’s IND vs ENG match
IND vs ENG, 3rd T20I: Actually Nitish Kumar Reddy is out of the entire series. At the same time, Rinku Singh is also out for two matches. That is, both these players will not be able to play today’s match. Rinku did not play the last match, so Dhruv Jurel got a chance to play in the playing eleven.
With these two players out, Shivam Dubey and Ramandeep Singh have entered the team. Now the first option is to give Dhruv Jurel another opportunity. In the last match, Jurel could score only four runs in five balls and got out. He could not capitalize on the opportunity he got. But it is possible that he may be given another chance.
Big record on the captain’s target
Actually, Jos Buttler is one of those select foreign batsmen whose performance has been excellent on Indian soil. Jos Buttler has played 19 matches in T20I cricket in India and scored 539 runs. If Butler manages to score 18 runs in the third match, he will become the highest run-scorer foreign batsman in the shortest format of cricket i.e. T20I on Indian soil. Butler has a great opportunity to leave behind Afghan player Mohammad Nabi.
Mohammad Nabi is the first foreign batsman to score the most T20I runs in India. Nabi has scored 556 runs in 25 T20I matches. Butler can also complete 600 runs in this series. If he manages to do so, he will become the first foreign batsman to touch the 600-run mark in T20I in India.
Today’s IND vs ENG match will be very important
IND vs ENG, 3rd T20I: This match of the series is very important. If the Indian team wins this match, then the series will also be won by them. After this, the remaining two matches will be just for formality, while if the England team manages to register a win, then the excitement will return. The third match of the five-match series is always important. It remains to be seen with what strategy both the teams enter the field.
