Ahead of the decisive third T20, India made a surprise change by excluding spin bowler Ravi Bishnoi from the squad. Iyer explained that every player experiences challenging phases, and the decision provides a learning opportunity for Bishnoi.
Prince Yadav has been drafted into the playing side, replacing the 60‑run scorer from the previous game. Iyer praised the team’s morale, noting that the pitch looks favorable for bowlers and that the squad remains confident despite the recent setback.
The move underscores India’s intent to tighten its bowling attack and recover the series footing. England, meanwhile, sticks with its original lineup, hoping to consolidate the lead they earned in Manchester.
