Change in top Order
Hardik Pandya can make some changes in India’s top order, which proved to be a failure in the first two T20 matches played against New Zealand. Shubman Gill, who has proved his mettle in ODIs, can be dropped from the team in the third T20 match. Prithvi Shaw sitting on the bench can be given a chance in his place. Hardik will have to take this decision to strengthen the top order. Whereas Ishaan Kishan will be seen opening with Prithvi. Only Rahul Tripathi will be given a chance at number three. Rahul hasn’t done much in the last few matches but skipper Hardik Pandya would like to give him a chance.

Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya will handle Middle Order
Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya will handle the middle order in this match as well. Hardik can do wonders for the team with the bat as well as the ball. Apart from these, Deepak Hooda and Washington Sundar will be seen at number five and six. Both these players can show their amazing skills on the spin tracks of Narendra Modi Stadium. However, considering the condition of the pitches in Ranchi and Lucknow, the pitch in Ahmedabad can be made a little less spin friendly. Deepak Hooda needs to do wonders with the bat in this match. Due to his flop, there is no depth in the batting of the team. Talking about Washington Sundar, he is in excellent form with both bat and ball.

In such a situation, once again the spin unit will be handled by Kulcha i.e. Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav. At the same time, Shivam Mavi and Arshdeep Singh can once again be seen in action as fast bowlers.
