As the Indian team prepares for the 5th and final Test against England, the Men in Blue have been arriving in Dharamshala in groups. On March 5th (Tuesday), Indian captain Rohit Sharma made a grand entrance in Dharamshala, arriving by helicopter.

Unlike the rest of the squad, who arrived on Sunday, Rohit came later due to attending a pre-wedding event of Anant Ambani-Radhika Merchant in Jamnagar. After being seen departing for Dharamshala on Monday, it's now confirmed that he reached the city on March 5, opting for a helicopter. Rohit was warmly welcomed by the media and fans in Dharamshala, and footage of his arrival has since gone viral.

IND vs ENG clash:

Although India has already secured the series and currently has a 3-1 lead, the upcoming game will hold significant importance for Rohit Sharma and his team as they look to earn crucial points in the World Test Championship (WTC) points table. India rose to the top spot after Australia's recent victory against New Zealand, however, maintaining their No. 1 position is not guaranteed.

With 62 points from 8 matches, India's points percentage improved to 64.58 after their win in Ranchi. However, a loss to England in the final Test, coupled with Australia's win over New Zealand, could alter the standings. 

India, in the five-match series, lost their first game in Hyderabad, but bounced back during the Visakhapatnam Test and followed it up with wins in Rajkot and Ranchi. As for the Indian captain, Rohit has amassed 297 runs in 4 matches with an average of 37.12.

IND vs ENG Teams:

England Squad: Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes(c), Ben Foakes(w), Tom Hartley, Mark Wood, Shoaib Bashir, James Anderson, Ollie Robinson, Daniel Lawrence, Gus Atkinson

India Squad: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma(c), Shubman Gill, Rajat Patidar, Ravindra Jadeja, Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel(w), Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Akash Deep, Mohammed Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah, Srikar Bharat, Devdutt Padikkal, Axar Patel, Mukesh Kumar
