Cricket Match India vs England 5th ODI live on Sunday 27 January, 2013
at 03:30 GMT. The match is due to be played in Dharamsala starting at
9:00am local time 3.30am GMT.
International cricket has reached the beautiful shores of Dharamsala as England wound up their split tour of India with the final ODI. The series has been bolted with India securing the trophy with a convincing victory at Mohali on Wednesday, but both the sides will look to end the series on a high note.
The picturesque stadium at Dharamsala, surrounded by the beautiful Himalayan mountains will play host to its 1st ever international match after having hosted a handful of IPL games. The venue, Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, is set at an altitude of 1457 metres and offers one of the best views for spectators. It is against this background that the two teams tee-off one final time in the series.
India has already won the five match one-day series 3-1 with one match remaining and this is a dead rubber. Both the teams would like to experiment with their new players under testing Indian conditons.
Cheteshwar Pujara is likely to replace Indian opener Gautam Gambhir for the 5th and final one-day international against India at the HPCA Stadium in Dharmashala which will be played on Sunday.
India has taken an unassailable 3-1 lead in the series and the final ODI gives the host team a chance to test the bench. England, meanwhile, would look to end the tour on a positive note.
Chris Woakes is expected to replace Tim Bresnan in England's squad, while Stuart Meaker could replace Jade Dernbach.
