England vs India, 2018: England's Predicted XI for 3rd Test

England v India: Specsavers 1st Test - Day One

All-rounders: Chris Woakes and Sam Curran

England v India: Specsavers 2nd Test - Day Three

Chris Woakes, the Man of the Match in the previous Test against India, made his comeback to the Test cricket with an all-round performance in the second Test. His knock of 137* in the first innings of the second Test proved to be vital for England. Besides his handy knock, Woakes also shone in the bowling department with four wickets in the match. Thus, with Ben Stokes set to miss the third Test as well, Woakes is expected to confirm his place in the playing XI for the third Test.

Sam Curran, the young lad, has been the find of the series thus far. With umpteen all-round abilities, Curran has been a good asset for the Englishmen in this tour. Having contributed in both the departments, Curran boasts to be a menace to any opposition. Thus, Curran is most likely to retain his place in the playing XI for the third Test.
