In the third T20I match against Team India, Afghanistan's skipper Ibrahim Zadran has won the toss and elected to bowl first at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.

After winning the toss, Afghanistan's skipper Zadran said, "We are going to bowl first. We wanted to bowl first in the last two games as well, but unfortunately, we lost the toss. If you look at the wicket, it's quite supportive for the bowlers, and I'm sure we will execute our plans well in the bowling department. We will try to put pressure on them and not allow them to put a big score on the board. [What’s the team’s mindset after the series defeat?] We have lost the series, but we thought about the areas we need to work on and what we haven't done well in the last two games. We will try to play better cricket and win a game against them to finish well. And yes, India are one of the best teams. They have, I would say, all the departments covered in T20 cricket, but we always try to make things easy for ourselves and not complicate them. We just try to give 100 per cent and play better cricket against them. [Any changes?] Yes, we have got two changes. Gulbadin Naib and Noor Ahmad are not playing. Abdullah Ahmadzai and Noor ul Rahman are in".
