India vs England, IND vs ENG 3rd T20I Niranjan Shah Stadium Pitch Report And Rajkot Weather Forecast Suryakumar Yadav led India will lock horns against Jos Buttler’s England in the third of the five-match T20I series in Rajkot On Tuesday. The hosts with the win in a nail-bitter in Chennai have taken a 2-0 lead.
England on the other side after the mauling at the Eden Gardens showed some fighting spirit. However, it wasn’t enough to square the series and the third T20I will be do-or-die for them. While bowling looked in some shape in the 2nd T20I it was batting that put the Buttler’s men in a pickle yet again.
Pitch report
The pitch in Rajkot is a high-scoring one. England who seem to have their fair share of issues on slower surfaces would enjoy playing on Rajkot and will give them a chance to display their power-hitting ability. India on the other hand too has their share of hard hitters in the side especially the top three who if clicked collectively can take the game away from the opposition on any given day.
Weather report
The maximum temperature in the morning is 33 degrees centigrade and it falls down to 15 degrees centigrade in the evening according to the Accuweather app. The temperature difference might cause dew in the outfield as the game goes in the evening hence the team winning the toss might opt to bowl first and enjoy the better batting conditions on the wet-outfield in second innings.
