With the Indian opening pair of Shubman and Ishan Kishan both under the scanner after failing to score big, Prithvi Shaw is likely to be called in for the final T20I.
The two Indian openers who are in a purple patch in ODIs have averaged close to 15 in the shortest format of the game. A lot of things will be looked at going into the final T20I of the series, with India’s record of twelve consecutive home series win in line.
India’s Probable XI for 3 rd T20I: Shubman Gill/Prithvi Shaw, Ishan Kishan (wk)/Jitesh Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya (C), Deepak Hooda, Washington Sundar, Shivam Mavi, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal/Umran Malik, Arshdeep Singh
