What are the odds?

Dafabet odds will appear here when available.

Who’s involved?

India are without Jasprit Bumrah for the entire T20 series, with Bhuvneshwar Kumar spearheading India’s pace in his place. Ravindra Jadeja is also absent, while Kuldeep Yadav has been overlooked, so Washington Sundar and Axar Patel are on spin duty for the hosts.

Mumbai Indians pair Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan both made their international debuts in the second T20I.

Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan were both left out of the second encounter, as KL Rahul and Kishan were partnered at the top of the innings.

England are virtually at full-strength, though Mark Wood missed Sunday’s clash with a bruised heel.

India Squad: Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Rishabh Pant, Ishan Kishan, Yuzvendra Chahal, Varun Chakravarthy, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Rahul Tewatia, T Natarajan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Deepak Chahar, Navdeep Saini, Shardul Thakur

England Squad: Eoin Morgan, Moeen Ali, Jofra Archer, Jonathan Bairstow, Sam Billings, Jos Buttler, Sam Curran, Tom Curran, Chris Jordan, Liam Livingstone, Dawid Malan, Adil Rashid, Jason Roy, Ben Stokes, Reece Topley, Mark Wood

Reserves: Jake Ball, Matt Parkinson

Will fans be permitted?

Crowds are being allowed to watch the T20Is at the reconstructed Narendra Modi Stadium. The stadium is apparently operating at 50% capacity to allow social distancing to be in operation throughout the ground. But the first T20 saw 67,200 attend at the 110,000-capacity venue.
