IND vs ENG Dream11 Prediction, Playing XI, Top Picks: 3rd T20I

IND vs ENG Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing XI, and Fantasy Cricket Tips. India and England will play against each other in the 3rd T20I at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

India:

The Indian team made a perfect comeback in the series by winning the second match comfortably by 7 wickets. Both the batting and bowling unit performed equally well in the last game.

Shikhar Dhawan was rested, and Ishan Kishan was selected in his place, and he batted brilliantly, scoring a fifty in his debut match. KL Rahul has been struggling a lot in this series to score runs. King Kohli is back to form and batted brilliantly and lead the Indian team to victory.

Rishab Pant is being promoted up the order whenever there is a requirement to score runs quickly, and he has performed to the expectations. Shreyas has been batting decently so far, and the debutant Surya Kumar Yadav did not get a chance to bat.

The all-rounders Hardik Pandya and Sundar have been performing their roles very well. Sundar has been consistently picking up wickets, and Hardik is also looking fit and bowling his full quota. Yuzvendra Chahal, after being expensive in the first match, bowled well in the last game.

The pacers Bhuvneshwar and Shardul Thakur have been bowling well and controlling the flow of runs in the death overs. Indian team would want to continue the winning momentum and take the lead in the series by winning the next match.

England:

After a brilliant start to the series, the England team had to face disappointment in the last match. They struggled to score runs at the death overs, and that affected them a lot.

Jason Roy batted well but once again fell short of his well-deserved fifty, and Jos Buttler has not looked in right touch as he got out for a duck in the last match. At No.3 Dawid Malan has been batting decently but is yet to play big innings.

In the middle-order, Bairstow, Morgan, and Stokes, who were supposed to hit big sixes and accelerate the run-rate, struggled a lot to score even boundaries. As a result, they had to settle for a mediocre score in the last match.

The bowlers who had troubled the Indian batsmen in the first match appeared to be clueless in the second match. Archer has been controlling runs very well but was unlucky in the last game as he went wicketless. Curran and Jordan have also been bowling well in the England team.

England won’t take this defeat easily and would be eagerly waiting to get on to the field in the next match and try to win.
