The pitch for the third T20 is expected to be on a slower side and Bangladesh might make one change by dropping Mustafizur Rahman for Taijul Islam. On the other hand, India are also expected to bring in Rahul Chahar in place of Shivam Dube.

Liton Das and Mohammad Naim will continue to kick off the proceedings for the visitors. They provided a good start in the second T20I by putting up 60 runs on the board in 7.2 overs. Soumya Sarkar, who made his comeback for the series, will succeed the duo in the order and will be followed by Mushfiqur Rahim. He played a crucial role in team’s win in the opening T20I but was dismissed on four in the second T20I.

Skipper Mahmudullah, Afif Hossain and Mosaddek Hossan will come next. The latter was expected to be the star player for his team but hasn’t been able to do much. He will hope to get a chance and do well.

Aminul Islam, who has tested Indian batsmen in the series so far, will look to make most out of the Nagpur track. He has been a surprise element for Bangladesh in this series.

Taijul Islam, who is yet to chance in the series, might get a look in due to nature of the pitch. He has been a consistent performer in red-ball cricket but is waiting for his chances in the shortest fomat. He had made his debut in the tri-series against Afghanistan and Zimbabwe. Taijul might replace Mustafizur Rahman, who is yet to get a wicket in the series. Shafiul Islam and Al-Amin Hossain are expected to retain their sports in the playing XI.
