India vs England: T Natarajan replaces Kuldeep Yadav in India’s playing XI

After dismal performances with the ball in both the two ODIs, Kuldeep Yadav has been dropped from the playing XI for the ENG vs IND 3^rd ODI match and T Natarajan has replaced the chinaman bowler. Therefore, India will be playing the series decider with four specialist pacers in Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Shardul Thakur, Prasidh Krishna and Natarajan alongside Krunal Pandya as the lone spinner. It will be interesting to see whether Hardik Pandya’s bowling services gets utilized in this crucial match or not. On the other hand, England have also made a change to their winning combination with Mark Wood replacing Tom Curran.

It is expected to be another crackerjack high-scoring encounter between two heavyweight ODI teams. This will also be the final opportunity for England to win a series in this ongoing India tour after having lost both the Test and T20I series while the hosts will be aiming to end their home season on a high.
