Sharma at the toss said that the Men in Blue would want to end the England tour on a high. Bumrah is out with a niggle. 

“We are gonna bowl first. It looks like a good track and won’t change for the course of 100 overs. It is the series decider and we have played some good cricket on the tour, we took the learning from the last game and hopefully will rectify the mistakes. We have bowled well in the limited overs leg, the T20 series as well. Hopefully we can restrict them today to a reasonable target. Bumrah has a niggle and we don’t want to risk him, so Siraj comes in,” Rohit Sharma said at the toss.

England will go in with the same playing 11. Jos Buttler and co won the second T20I by 100 runs. 

“We would have looked to bat. It is a little muggy and there might be some swing early on, but will get better for batting as the game progresses. It is great for the series as it is 1-1 coming into this game. Lots of positives, we scrapped with the bat to get a defendable total in the last game. We are going with the same team,” Buttler said.
