The fifth Test of the India-England series will begin on Thursday (March 7). The match will be played at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala. Currently, Team India is leading 3-1 in the series. Rohit's Sena will now aim to win the final Test as well and consolidate their position in the World Test Championship points table.
On the other hand, England started practicing for a comeback after the first series defeat under the captaincy of Ben Stokes. This can lead to a fierce fight between the two teams. However, reports that rain may interrupt this exciting fifth Test are disturbing the fans. The five-day Test matches at Dharamsala will be very cold. There are high chances that the match will be stopped due to rain on the first day. 3, 4 days will be sunny. But the 5th day will be cloudy again. Weather reports say that there is a possibility of rain on the last day. In addition, lack of light can become a hindrance to the game. Floodlights are likely to be used after tea. š¦ļøAnd the environment of Dharamshala is likely to cause some trouble for the players. Considering the weather, the best option is to bowl first to the team that won the toss. It seems that the pitch is suitable for fast bowlers. Jasprit Bumrah, who was rested in the Ranchi Test, will return to the playing eleven in the fifth Test. Depending on the situation at Dharamshala, the Rohit Sharma-led side could field three pacers in the form of Mohammad Siraj, Akash Deep and Bumrah. When it comes to India's batting, Rajat Patidar is likely to find a place in the playing eleven despite his unproven form in Test cricket so far. It is also said that Devdutt Padikkal will also play. On the other hand, Ravichandran Ashwin will play his 100th Test match at Dharamsala. šāØ
