IND vs ENG 3rd T20 Match Prediction: India will play their third T20 match against the England side on January 28. The match will be played at 7:00 PM IST at Niranjan Shah Stadium, Rajkot.
Team Preview of India vs England T20 Match Prediction 3rd T20 2025
Tilak Varma showed his composure and maturity in the last match after he took the Indian team to the finishing line in a difficult time when the top and middle order total flopped. He scored 72 not out in the last match to tell the world that he is notably one of the most exciting players in the T20I format in the world.
India will not move to Rajkot to play the third T20I match against England, who are still finding their way to play against the spinners. In the last match, their bowling unit did quite well, especially Brydon Carse, who did everything he could to make England win. However, once again, except for Buttler, no other player in the batting unit stepped up and fell short against the spinners.
The third T20I match can be a decisive one as India already won 2 matches and now needs to win just another to clinch the 5 match series. They will go all out, but for England, every match from now on will be a must-win match, and they don’t want to have a clean sweep.
Suryakumar Yadav needs to start scoring because his performance has decreased since he became the captain. Even in the domestic circuit, he did not score a half-century. Last year, he only scored 4 50s in 17 innings with an average of 26.81, but before that, he had averaged around 46-48 in 2022-2023.

Rajkot Pitch has been high-scoring during all five T20I matches played here. The last international match played here was in 2023 between India and Sri Lanka, in which India scored 228 runs. The pitch is balanced one and bowling first will going to benefit the team because there are chances of due, which made things harder for the bowlers.
Important players for the India Team in the match against the England Team
1. Abhishek Sharma will once again be an important player in your team he failed to score runs in the last match but will be a great pick because he took one wicket in the last match.
2. Suryakumar Yadav needs to perform better, which he failed to do, but in the last match, he looked in good touch and still got out on just 12 runs. He already scored a century on this ground against Sri Lanka and can be a differential captaincy pick for your team.
3. Tilak Varma has an 185.5 average in the last 6 matches, scoring 371 runs, which clearly shows his form in the T20 format. He scored 72 not out in the last match and will be a key player in this one, too.
Important players for the England Team in the match against the India Team
1. Jos Buttler once again was the highest scorer from the England side in the last match, scoring 45 runs in just 30 balls, and will once again be a great vice-captaincy choice for your team.
2. Liam Livingstone scored 13 runs and took a wicket, but he needs to play more sensible innings. He should come up the order and build the innings from there.
3. Brydon Carse looked very confident playing against the Indian spinners as he scored 31 runs and got run out because of Archer’s fault, and he also took 3 wickets with his pace and slower ones.
