Rohit Sharma Arrives in Dharamsala for Fifth and Final Test Against England
India's skipper Rohit Sharma arrived in Dharamsala on Tuesday, marking the commencement of preparations for the fifth and final Test against England. The match, scheduled to take place at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium from March 7, will conclude the five-match series, which India currently leads 3-1.
Rohit, accompanied by his wife, had previously attended the pre-wedding festivities of Mukesh Ambani's son in Jamnagar. Both the Indian and English teams arrived in Dharamsala on Sunday.
Despite losing the opening match of the series, India rallied with consecutive victories in Visakhapatnam, Rajkot, and Ranchi to secure the series win. India's dominance is reflected in their top ranking in the World Test Championship standings, while England languishes in eighth place.
The final Test will witness the return of India's pace spearhead, Jasprit Bumrah, who was rested for the series-clinching victory in Ranchi. The Indian squad for the Dharamsala Test includes:
* Rohit Sharma (captain)
* Jasprit Bumrah (vice-captain)
* Yashasvi Jaiswal
* Shubman Gill
* Rajat Patidar
* Sarfaraz Khan
* Dhruv Jurel (wicket-keeper)
* KS Bharat (wicket-keeper)
* Devdutt Padikkal
* R Ashwin
* Ravindra Jadeja
