IND vs ENG 2024: Team India’s predicted XI for third Test against England

Team India bounced back in the second Test match after commencing the series with a defeat. They outclassed the visitors in a true sense to showcase their domination at home.

The third Test of the five-match series will get underway on Thursday, February 15, in Rajkot. The Men in Blue will be forced to make multiple changes in their playing XI due to injuries.

Here, we look at the playing XI that Team India can field against England in the third Test match:

Openers: Rohit Sharma (c), Yashasvi Jaiswal

The stories of Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal as batters have been poles away in this series so far. While Rohit has been struggling to score big with the bat, Yashasvi has been going all guns blazing.

The Indian skipper has managed to accumulate only 90 runs in four innings, averaging 22.50. On the other hand, the youngster is the leading run-getter of the series with 321 runs to his name, including a double hundred.

Being a senior member of the side, Rohit will be under the radar to contribute more with his weapon. Despite all these facts, the opening duo of these two will remain intact for the third match.
