Mitchell Santner has won the toss for New Zealand and has chosen to chase, hoping the pitch skids under the lights. They have made one change: Daryl Mitchell in for Devon Conway. No extra spinner in for them.
Rohit Sharma would have batted first anyway having fielded in the first two games on the same square. India have packed the side in with one extra spinner, resting Harshit Rana for Varun Chakravarthy. That give India two attacking, wicket-taking spinners in Varun and Kuldeep Yadav.
India 1 Rohit Sharma (capt.), 2 Shubman Gill, 3 Virat Kohli, 4 Shreyas Iyer, 5 KL Rahul (wk), 6 Hardik Pandya, 7 Ravindra Jadeja, 8 Washington Sundar, 9 Kuldeep Yadav, 10 Varun Chakravarthy, 11 Mohammed Shami
New Zealand 1 Will Young, 2 Rachin Ravindra, 3 Kane Williamson, 4 Daryl Mitchell, 5 Tom Latham (wk), 6 Glenn Phillips, 7 Michael Bracewell, 8 Mitchell Santner (capt.), 9 Kyle Jamieson, 10 Matt Henry, 11 Will O'Rourke.
