3rd T20I: Bishnoi set to be dropped as India look to play extra seamer
The Indian cricket team is expected to drop leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi for the third T20I against England in favor of an additional pace bowler. The team is looking to improve its performance after a series of losses and struggles with the pitch conditions.
