Live score updates for India vs. England for the first day of the third test
India vs. England Day 1:
At the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot, England’s Ben Stokes stated he would have preferred to bat first.After winning the toss, Rohit Sharma decided to bat first. Dhruv Jurel and Sarfaraz Khan made their Test debuts today, and Mohammed Siraj and Ravindra Jadeja returned to the Indian team, marking a number of changes in the team.
India won the second Test match in Vishakhapatnman, while England won the first one, leaving the series evenly balanced.
England has made their presence felt in the series with their Bazball style, which has frequently forced the Indians to play catch-up with the visitors. This goes against the popular belief that India will thrash their opponents on home turf, where they haven’t lost a series in the in 12 years.
But, India will be hoping to replicate their performance from the second Test, where Jasprit Bumrah’s power was evident as he took nine wickets in the match, taking advantage of Vishakhapatnam’s reverse-friendly conditions. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill also excelled, scoring a double century and a century, respectively.
England, who depend mostly on their batting, will want to exert pressure on the Indian attack by adopting an aggressive strategy, which is what they have done well in this series. England’s spinners will also believe they have a good opportunity in Rajkot, given the inexperience of the Indian batting lineup.
Regarding team news, the Indian lineup will see some changes as Ravindra Jadeja clears his fitness test and is called up for the second Test, while KL Rahul becomes the latest well-known player to be left out of this match along with Virat Kohli. Having rested Shreyas Iyer for the past three games, India would probably start Dhruv Jurel or Sarfaraz Khan in his place.
England, on the other hand, has already revealed its playing lineup for the third Test. They have chosen to field three spinners in Rehan Ahmed, Tom Hartley, and Joe Root in addition to two pacers, Mark Wood and James Anderson.
England’s Starting Lineup:
The starting eleven for England are: Ben Foakes, Rehan Ahmed, Tom Hartley, Mark Wood, James Anderson, Joe Root, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Crawley, and Jonny Bairstow.
India’s Starting XI:
The players batting for Rohit Sharma are Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhruv Jurel (wk), R Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, and Mohammed Siraj.
Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (c), Ben Foakes (wk), Rehan Ahmed, Tom Hartley, James Anderson, Mark Wood, and Zak Crawley make up the playing XI for England.
