England vs India 2018: Predicted XI of both teams for third T20I

Bowling Attack

Chris Jordan

Chris Jordan bowled a tight penultimate over

Chris Jordan bowled very well in the first T20I but was more expensive in the second match, going for 34 runs in his 4 overs. However, he has a reputation of being a good death bowler and was true to that in the penultimate over where he hit his yorkers consistently other than the one delivery that Hardik Pandya deposited into the stands.

Liam Plunkett

Liam Plunkett picked up the wicket of KL Rahul in the 2nd T20I

Plunkett was the pick of the English bowlers, along with Willey in the second T20I, as he conceded only 17 in his four, in addition to picking up the prized wicket of KL Rahul. After being on the expensive side in the first T20I, Plunkett seems to be hitting his line and length well and will be key for England’s hopes in the final T20I.

Adil Rashid

The Indian batsmen have found Adil Rashid hard to get away

Adil Rashid had been in great bowling form leading up to the T20I series against India and has carried that on in the first two matches. Though Kohli and Dhoni managed to strike a few into the boundary in the second game, he was otherwise very disciplined in his line and length, bowling primarily googlies that were hard to dispatch.

Jake Ball/Moeen Ali

Jake Ball picked up the wicket of Rohit Sharma in the second T20I

Brought in as a replacement for Moeen Ali, Jake Ball had bowled well until the last over of the Indian innings, which went for 22, where his back of a length deliveries were put away by MS Dhoni. It remains to be seen if Ball gets another game or Ali comes back into the side for the decider since Ali is handy with the bat in hand as well.
