England captain Eoin Morgan won the toss, and elected to bowl in the final T20I against India captain at Motera in Ahmedabad. Virat Kohli will open alongside Rohit Sharma tonight in the series decider which is poised at 2-2. KL Rahul has been replaced with T Natarajan who returns to the team after the Australia tour. 

Meanwhile, last match hero, Suryakumar Yadav will bat at number three. England go unchanged in the final. Virat Kohli is the leading run-scorer for India in the series, and he also has struck most sixes. He will be key, though he has to be careful against Adil Rashid, who has dismissed him twice already. India will be eager to get a psychological advantage over the Eoin Morgan-led side by winning the series. 

Teams:

India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli(c), Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant(w), Shreyas Iyer, Hardik Pandya, Shardul Thakur, Washington Sundar, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rahul Chahar, T Natarajan

England (Playing XI): Jason Roy, Jos Buttler(w), Dawid Malan, Jonny Bairstow, Eoin Morgan(c), Ben Stokes, Sam Curran, Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood
