India face West Indies in crucial third T20I at Indore

India and West Indies meet in the third T20I of their five-match series at Holkar Stadium in Indore on Sunday, with the series level at 1-1. The match begins at 7 pm IST and will be broadcast live on the Star Sports Network with streaming available on the JioHotstar app and website. West Indies levelled the series with a six-wicket win in Ranchi, chasing down India's 249 with more than an over to spare.

Captain Shai Hope's unbeaten century anchored the successful chase, while Sherfane Rutherford's 84 off 37 balls proved decisive after Mayank Yadav dropped a straightforward catch when the left-hander was on 38. The missed opportunity allowed Rutherford to add 120 runs for the fifth wicket with his captain. Gautam Gambhir highlighted the ongoing challenges faced by bowlers on batter-friendly tracks.

Shreyas Iyer's side will look to regain the series lead after their eight-wicket win in the opener at Lucknow. The flat tracks and short boundaries at Indore are expected to continue favouring the batters, making execution across all departments critical to the outcome.
