England make two changes: not just Carse for Atkinson, but Jamie Smith for Bethell, who is unwell. For Smith, this is a T20 international debut. He has produced some fabulous clean hitting in his first few Tests, but only after taking his time to play himself in.
India make two changes too. They leave out two players who neither batted nor bowled in the first game, Rinku Singh (who is injured) and Nitish Kumar Reddy. In come Dhruv Jurel and Washington Sundar, so SKY has yet another frontline spinner in his armoury.
