Bengaluru: England captain Eoin Morgan has won the toss for the third consecutive time and has asked India to bat first in the third and final T20 here.

Having lost the first game, India had to rely on their bowlers last time out to level the series. They will be looking to keep the momentum and hope the batsman can finally put together a big score.

Young Rishabh Pant, 19, makes his debut in this decisive encounter replacing Manish Pandey and is likely to open the batting with KL Rahul with Virat Kohli dropping to the number three spot.

There are no changes to the England side.
