IND vs NZ 3rd Test LIVE: Mumbai. Teams of India and New Zealand (IND vs NZ) are playing the third and final Test match of the 3 Test series at the historic Wankhede ground in Mumbai. The visiting New Zealand won the toss here and decided to bat first. The Kiwi team has made 2 changes in their playing XI. Last match's match winner Mitchell Santner had a muscle strain, due to which Ish Sodhi has got a chance, while Matt Henry has got a chance in place of Tim Southee.
India's captain Rohit Sharma said that Jasprit Bumrah is not fully fit today. That's why he has been dropped from the playing XI and Mohammad Siraj has been given a chance in his place. Now Siraj will partner Akash Deep with the new ball.
India has already lost the series by losing the first two Test matches of the series. It is now trailing 0-2 and now the threat of a clean sweep is looming over it. The Indian team will enter the field to save its clean sweep by winning the last Test of the series. Along with this, it would also like to strengthen its position to reach the final of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) by losing two Tests. The last two Test losses have also caused a setback in the points table here. On the other hand, South Africa has strengthened its position by defeating Bangladesh in its home ground.
