India will continue to miss the services of Ishan Kishan and he has been ruled out of the third T20I as well. Speaking to the press on the eve of the fixture, India's bowling coach confirmed that Kishan will miss the fixture. He provided a positive update on him and revealed that Kishan will train with the team. The left-handed batter suffered a low-grade right adductor strain during the series opener. It forced India to change the batting order and Tilak Varma came out to bat at number three. Kishan was later ruled out of the second game.

The wicketkeeper-batter was part of the India A squad for the unofficial Test series against New Zealand A. Kushagra is also part of the ODI squad for the last two games. The third T20I of the series will be played at the Hnry Park on Tuesday (October 27) from 12:30 PM IST.
