Will India make any changes for the 3rd T20I?

The Men in Blue have gone in with unchanged playing XIs for the first two T20I matches against Bangladesh. Apart from all-rounder Reddy, they also handed a debut to fast bowler Mayank Yadav in the first match of the series in Gwalior, while leg-spinner Chakravarthy made a successful comeback to international cricket.

Wicket-keeper Jitesh Sharma, left-handed batter Tilak Varma, leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi, and uncapped pacer Harshit Rana are the four players who have been on the bench for Team India in the first two games.
