India vs England 3rd Test Preview

The series is beautifully poised at 1-1. After England stunned India in the first Test by 227 runs, the hosts made a grand comeback to win the second Test by a massive margin of 317 runs. The Day-Night Test is equally important for both sides as a defeat here will end the team's chances of making it to the final of the World Test Championship in June. 

While England will be bolstered with the return of James Anderson and Jofra Archer for the pink-ball Test, the Indian team will also receive a big boost with the return of Jasprit Bumrah. With two cricketing giants set to collide to make it to the WTC final at the world's largest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad, fans are in for a thrilling match.

India vs England pitch report

This is the first international match that is going to be played at the renovated Motera stadium. From what Rohit Sharma suggested in the pre-match press conference, it is evident that a pitch assisting spinners is being made for the Test. However, with the use of pink-ball for the Day-Night Test, pacers will come into action during the latter part of the days under lights. If India's success in the last Test on a turning Chepauk Test is anything to go by, it is likely that the surface used for the third Test will be rank turners, which is why the captain winning the toss will look to bat first and score big in the first innings.
