England have named an unchanged team for Tuesday’s must-win T20 international against India in Rajkot, where defeat would see the hosts wrap up the series.

Jos Buttler’s side are 2-0 down in the five-match series, having been thrashed by seven wickets in Wednesday’s opener before a nail-biting two-wicket defeat in Chennai on Saturday.

England’s line-up for third Test vs India: 1. Ben Duckett, 2. Phil Salt (WK), 3. Jos Buttler (c), 4. Harry Brook, 5. Liam Livingstone, 6. Jamie Smith, 7. Jamie Overton, 8. Brydon Carse, 9. Jofra Archer, 10. Adil Rashid, 11. Mark Wood

Carse confident of England series comeback

England have no room for manoeuvre if they are to give Brendon McCullum a winning start to life as all-format head coach but Carse remains bullish and believes there is more to come from the tourists.

When asked whether he still feels England can win the remaining three matches and the series, Carse said after Saturday’s defeat: “Yeah, of course, 100 per cent.

“It’s pretty evident that the performance was a lot better than the other night but we haven’t put a complete performance in. It’s quite exciting to see where we can get to over these next few games.

“I felt like we got a decent score on the board and we kept on taking wickets throughout the game. Credit goes to Tilak, he played a very mature and smart innings and ultimately he was the difference in their side.”
