The wait to see Vaibhav Suryavanshi on the field may be over on Thursday evening at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. In the last two matches played at this venue, Vaibhav had to sit on the bench, because the team management had given preference to the pair of Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson. There has been no change since Varun Chakraborty was out before the second match. Shreyas Iyer has indicated that he may make some changes in the line-up for the last match so that the players sitting on the bench also get a chance to play and get used to the conditions there. Vaibhav Suryavanshi may get a chance, and an additional bowler may be included in place of Shivam Dubey.
