The series scoreline is currently tied at 1-1. However, India will miss ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah with a knee injury.
“Jasprit Bumrah had an impact injury on his left knee while fielding in the second ODI in Cardiff. He was not available for selection for the third ODI due to reactive swelling in his left knee,” the BCCI said in a statement.
