The toss will take place shortly

The toss is going to take place in Visakhapatnam shortly from now. What will be the playing XI of the Indian team is a big question.

Who will be given rest today?

The Indian team has given rest of one match each to all the bowlers in this series. Today Abhishek Sharma and Hardik Pandya can be rested.

Will Sanju Samson be out of playing XI?

Sanju Samson has not batted in this series. His form before the T20 World Cup is a matter of concern. The Indian team can leave him out and get Ishan Kishan to open with Abhishek Sharma. Ishaan is in great form. It will be difficult to keep Tilak Verma out when he comes back. In such a situation, consideration can be given to trying Ishaan as an opener in the last two matches.
