Welcome to the Live Blog for the 3rd T20I between India and Afghanistan in Bengaluru.

7:52pm- Afghanistan have managed to clean up the Indian top order and are on the front foot after the first 10 overs. India 61/2.

7:00pm- Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma are on the crease. India's innings begin.

6:30pm- Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to bat first. India made three changes in their lineup from the 2nd T20I. Sanju Samson replaces Jitesh Sharma while Kuldeep Yadav and Avesh Khan come in for Axar Patel and Arshdeep Singh respectively.

The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is one of the best stadiums for a spectator to attend a game of cricket because of the feats batsmen can achieve in this stadium.

The relatively smaller dimensions of the ground allow batsmen to bat with freedom, resulting in a barrage of boundaries and a myriad of maximums.

The pitch is usually a flat deck, with dew playing a factor in almost all evening games at this venue. The captain that wins the toss in the third T20I against India and Afghanistan will opt to field first in all likelihood.

India Playing XI: Rohit Sharma (C), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Shivam Dube, Rinku Singh, Sanju Samson (WK), Kuldeep Yadav, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Mukesh Kumar

Afghanistan Playing XI: Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Ibrahim Zadran (C), Gulbadin Naib, Azmatullah Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi, Najibullah Zadran, Karim Janat, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Noor Ahmad, Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi
