India eye series whitewash against Afghanistan in final T20I

India will look to complete a series whitewash against Afghanistan in the third and final Twenty20 International on Thursday, having already secured an unassailable 2-0 lead. The match is scheduled at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, with the first ball to be bowled at 7:30 PM IST. India sealed the series with a seven-wicket victory in the second match on Tuesday, following a convincing win in the opener. Captain Shreyas Iyer has indicated that the team may make changes for the final game to provide valuable playing time to fringe players. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi could be handed his first international appearance at home, while Washington Sundar and Yash Thakur are also potential inclusions. The Indian bowling attack has been a key strength, restricting Afghanistan to totals of 156 for 8 and 159 for 8 in the first two matches. Spinner Varun Chakaravarthy has been ruled out of the remainder of the series due to a side strain, with Ravi Bishnoi expected to take his place. Afghanistan, led by Ibrahim Zadran, will be aiming to avoid a clean sweep and secure a consolation victory.
