Team Inda skipper Rohit Sharma had a huge selection headache before the second T20I versus England at Edgbaston and the ‘Hitman’ has indeed made four changes to the side from the previous game. Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah all come into the side.
England skipper Jos Buttler meanwhile won the toss and chose to bowl first, and he too opted to make two changes to his side.
Richard Gleeson makes his T20 debut for the Three Lions while David Willey also comes in.

With the T20 World Cup in Australia later this year, team India skipper Rohit in the previous game spoke about trying and testing as many combinations as possible to find the best XI ahead of the spectacle.
“We know the scheduling, we got to have the understanding, players will be swapped every now and then. You can create your bench strength as well, a lot of opportunities for guys to come out and play,” the ‘Hitman’ was quoted as saying.
