IND vs ENG 3rd Test Dream11 Prediction: A week-long break for Team India and England comes to an end as both teams gear up for an exciting 3rd test of the ongoing five-match series. The two sides will lock horns with each other at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot for the 3rd IND vs ENG Test, which starts on February 15.

The scoreline for the series so far has been 1-1 after two matches in Hyderabad and Vishakhapatnam. England thumped India early in the series with a win in the first test, however, Team India made a brilliant turn-around in the second game by winning it by a massive margin.

Ahead of the third game, Team India have suffered a blow in the form of KL Rahul, who has been again ruled out of the 3rd test. The BCCI has named Devdutt Padikkal as his replacement for the time being.

In another unavailability news, Virat Kohli continues to remain away from the test series. The veteran batter has informed that he won't take part in the remainder of the IND vs ENG test series due to personal reasons.

On the other side, England have suffered a blow with the injury to senior spinner Jack Leach. The spinner was adjudged not fit for India vs England's remaining test matches after he copped a knee injury during 1st test.

Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot Pitch Report

Expect plenty of runs on this surface. With a flat pitch, it is going to be a complete run-fest. Though, earlier it was said that the surface tends to favour pacers, it doesn't seem like one. Over the course of the game, the surface will have its natural wear and tears which will bring spinners into action.
