  var doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
            doc.LoadHtml(htmlFile);


          int count = 1;
          HtmlNodeCollection tables = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//table");
          foreach (HtmlNode table in tables)
          {

              var rows = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//tr");
              //here i need to get those 3 rows only.
              //but instead i am getting all inner TR also.

              foreach (HtmlNode tr in rows)
              {

              }
          }

You are selecting all the tables.

Try selecting just the table that is a child of body, something like:

SelectSingleNode("//body/table");

Then, count the TRs in that node.

Or, try doing it all in one step:

SelectNodes("//body/table/tr");
