Suryakumar Yadav, who did not bat a single delivery in his debut match on Sunday, has been replaced by India vice-captain Rohit Sharma in the third Twenty20 International on Tuesday.
Skipper Virat Kohli revealed the change in Indian playing eleven after England skipper Eoin Morgan won the toss and elected to field.
England brought back pacer Mark Wood in place of medium pacer Tom Curran.
Ishan Kishan, who opened in the last game, will bat at number three.
Here is how fans reacted to the development of Suryakumar being benched-
It would seem hard on Suryakumar Yadav but once Rohit came back it was going to be tough. I expect him to get a game sometime in the next two matches though
