IND vs WI 3rd T20I, Live Score: Ishan Kishan has given India a bright start after West Indies had struck early in the ongoing third T20I at the Eden Gardens. Jason Holder had dismissed Ruturaj Gaikwad for 4 in the third over. India captain Rohit Sharma confirmed at the toss that pacer Avesh Khan will make his international debut. West Indies had won the toss and elected to bowl as India made four changes to their playing XI from the pervious game. Rohit also confirmed that Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ishan Kishan will open the batting for India. Avesh received his debut cap from veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar. After clean sweeping the visitors in the ODI series earlier this month, India will look to whitewash the West Indies. India won the first T20I by a comfortable margin before the West Indies made them run for their money in the second match. Virat Kohli and Risahbh Pant’s half-centruies had laid the foundation of India’s narrow 8-run win on Friday. Both Virat and Pant will miss the final game, and will also sit out the upcoming T20I series against Sri Lanka, having been released from the teams’s bio-bubble. The West Indies, on the other hand, will look to end the series on high with a win, ahead of the three-match Test series against England on home soil. (LIVE SCORECARD)
