Afghanistan bowl; India pick Thakur for Arshdeep
Ibrahim Zadran made two changes bringing in Abdollah Ahmadzai and handing a debut to Noor ul Rahman
India and Afghanistan face off in the third T20I at Arun Jaitley Stadium, with India seeking a full whitewash of the series. The match's outcome already appears to be in India's favor, with a 75% chance of victory according to the provided win probability. India's recent form, highlighted by Sanju Samson's blistering 57 off 22 balls and a solid all-round performance from Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan, has bolstered their confidence heading into this crucial encounter.
Despite Afghanistan's valiant efforts, featuring notable contributions from Ibrahim Zadran and Rashid Khan, India's superior batting lineup and bowling attack have put them in a strong position. With key players like Nitish Reddy and Arshdeep Singh set to feature, India has managed to reshuffle their bowling options due to an injury to Varun Chakravarthy.
As the toss is scheduled for 7 pm, the stage is set for a high-stakes T20 match, with India favored at odds of 1.10, compared to Afghanistan's 6.60, according to Dafabet's current betting odds.
