IND vs ENG, 5th Test
The Indian team has already won the series 3-1, and would look to completely decimate the opposition with yet another win, after losing the first match in Hyderabad. But before that, the focus will be on the team combination, the management opts to go with. Some contrasting reports suggest that Devdutt Padikkal could get a look in, while other say that India would persist with Rajat Patidar.
On the other hand, India coach Rahul Dravid and captain Rohit Sharma are likely to be flown to Bilaspur on a helicopter, to inaugurate the Khel Mahakhumbh, as per a report in the Indian Express. Union minister and former BCCI president Anurag Thakur is also expected to be present at the event.
