India will be up against England in the 5th Test of the England tour of India at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala from March 7. The series is being led by the proud Indian team who have won the series already by a margin of 3-1 so far and would be looking forward to sealing the last game of the series as well.

These teams had squared off against each other in the fourth match of the series where England won the toss and elected to bat first. Root coming back to form with another sensational century was the focal point of the first innings with a fifty from Robinson as well. They posted a good total of 353 runs in reply to which India lost Rohit early but Jaiswal held the innings well. Jurel came to India’s aid when things went downhill for the team as he played a splendid knock of 90 and missed out on his century. He helped the team reach a total of 307 with a minimal deficit of 46.

Coming to bat once again, England folded very easily as the batters kept coming and going rapidly. Zak Crawley looked dangerous with his 60, but was done against the spin mastery of Kuldeep. Ashwin and Kuldeep bagged five and four respectively to reduce the English team to a total of 145 giving India a tricky chase of 192. A solid opening partnership did half of the job for the chase while the rest was done by the crucial partnership between Gill and Jurel. Gill and Jaiswal slammed fifties each to make India win the game by five wickets.

Pitch Report

The track at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala is expected to be more helpful to bowlers in nature. Pacers may dominate the game early on, but spinners can come into effect as the game progresses forward. Batters may have a tough time here. Teams prefer to bat first here after winning the toss, with the average first innings score being 253.

Player Picks

7.5
C

Yashasvi Jaiswal IND | BAT

Jaiswal has dominated the series with some style as he has already smashed two brilliant double centuries. He is the most probable contender for MVP of the series and should be made the captain of your fantasy side as well.

9
C

Ravindra Jadeja IND | ALL

Jadeja has shown why he is regarded as the best all-rounder at present with 217 runs and 17 scalps to his name. He can certainly make another brilliant captain.

9
C

Rohit Sharma IND | BAT

Rohit has been playing some crucial knocks when the team needs the most. He has scored 297 runs so far in this series leading the team from the front.

9

Ravichandran Ashwin IND | ALL

Ashwin was having a pretty ordinary series before the fourth game but he came back to form with style as well. He has picked up over 17 wickets and scored 116 runs too.

9

Jasprit Bumrah IND | BOWL

Bumrah was rested for the last match but he would be coming back to the team with this game. He has dominated the series so far and with helpful conditions in Dharamshala, he would certainly be dangerous.

9

Tom Hartley ENG | BOWL

Hartley has undoubtedly been the best spinner for the English team and probably their best player in this series as well. He has amassed 159 runs and 20 wickets in three games.

8.5

Shubman Gill IND | BAT

Shubhman did not start the series well but has played some fantastic knocks in the last few innings. He has slammed 342 runs playing four games.

8.5

Joe Root ENG | BAT

Before the fourth game, Root had only been able to contribute with the ball scalping eight wickets. He made a sensational comeback in the last game with the bat as well where he slammed a ton.

6

Dhruv Jurel IND | WK

Jurel has been extremely impressive in the previous match where he won the Player of the Match award. He should not be a player to miss out on.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8.5

Ollie Pope

ENG | BAT

After playing a fantastic knock in the first match, Pope has not been able to do anything later on. He can be left out of your team.

8

Jonny Bairstow

ENG | WK

Bairstow has not been able to play good knocks so far in the series. He should not find a place in your fantasy team.
