India have won the toss and elected to bowl first against Australia in the third and final T20 on Sunday here at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is back and Rishabh Pant missed out in the Indian setup while Josh Inglis replaced of Sean Abbott in Australia’s playing XI.India skipper Rohit Sharma said: “We will bowl first. It’s good to be back in Hyderabad and play in front of this crowd. We look to keep winning games, it’s important to maintain your momentum in this format of the game, so it was a good win for us (in Nagpur). Australia have always been challenging, they bring in a different kind of challenge. We need to keep doing the basics right if we have to get success.””The last win helped us gain confidence and I hope everyone steps up today. One change for us – Bhuvi is back, Rishabh misses out, we needed only 4 bowlers in the last game, so he (Bhuvneshwar) unfortunately missed out,” he added.On the other hand, Australia captain Aaron Finch said: “We would have fielded as well, it looks like a good wicket though. We always want to perform against the best sides, in that sense this is a very important game for us. The crowds in India have always been amazing, regardless of where they play. One change for us. Josh Inglis comes in place of Sean Abbott.
