India and England eye series win in the third and final T20I of the series

India and England are set to go head to head on Sunday afternoon in the third and final T20I of the three match series which whoever wins will clinch the series. Both teams will be eyeing a win here.

Date and Time : 8th July 2018, 6:30 PM IST

Venue : County Ground, Bristol

India blew away a 1-0 advantage two days ago in Cardiff as England drew level. But now have hopes of clinching a series win which they should have probably already achieved.

It’s not going to be easy against England specially in their own backyard but it should be an interesting contest. If Team India play to their strengths then I am pretty confident of success on Sunday.

On the other hand, England have done well to make a comeback after being blown away in Manchester five days ago. They now have a job at their hands to seal the home series win over giants India.

England have certainly got the capability and it comes down to how they play spin at the weekend.

The Europeans have a better head to head record against India and they will surely take confidence from that.

Team news and possible line-ups

Ben Stokes is available for England and might play the series decider on Sunday.

As for India, they are probably going to stick with the same playing XI as in the previous game.

England XI : Morgan (C), Roy, Buttler, Stokes, Hales, Bairstow, Ball, Jordan, Willey, Plunkett, Rashid.

India XI : Kohli (C), R. Sharma, Dhawan, Raina, Rahul, Dhoni, H. Pandya, B. Kumar, U. Yadav, Chahal, K. Yadav

Prediction

I think it should be a cracker of a game between two evenly matched sides but I think India should probably win it in the end given their winning form.
