3rd T20I: Shami Comes In For Arshdeep As India Opt To Bowl Against England
Pacer Mohammed Shami: Pacer Mohammed Shami returns to international cricket after 14 months as India won the toss and elected to bowl first against England in the third T20I, here at the Niranjan Shah Stadium on Tuesday.
Shami replaced fellow pacer Arshdeep Singh, who has been rested for the match. India will look to seal the five-match series with a win here after taking a 2-0 lead in Chennai courtesy of Tilak Varma's unbeaten 72.
Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav said, "We will bowl first, looks nice and hard, don't think it will change later as well. Rajkot has always been a good track, sure it will be a sporting one. We wanted to play a different brand of cricket but at the same time you need to understand the situation and he (Tilak) bailed the side out. We'll look at it as a 3 game series from here, boys are charged up. Arshdeep is resting, Shami comes in."
