IND vs ENG 3rd T20I, Match Prediction- Who Will Win Today?

India are turning out to be a tough side to beat in the shortest format. They are a win away from another series win and their line-up has some incredible depth. They bat deep with Axar coming in at eight while the bowling attack has a handful of options with nearly five spinners. A pacer though to support Arshdeep and take some pressure of Hardik could be the missing piece that they will need to find, which won't be too big a concern if Shami is fit and ready to go.
