India captain Rohit Sharma along with head coach Rahul Dravid will miss the practice session ahead of the fifth Test against England match which is scheduled to be played in HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala.

India have already sealed the series by 3-1 in the five-Test match series against Three Lions. Now, Rohit Sharma & Co. will look to win the fifth Test match to strengthen their position at the top of the WTC points table by making it 4-1 and England.

"England will train at the HPCA stadium from 9:30 AM onwards. India will train at the HPCA stadium from 12:30 PM onwards," BCCI said in an official statement.

Meanwhile, according to an Indian Express report, India coach Dravid and captain Rohit are likely to be flown to Bilaspur on a helicopter as special guests to inaugurate the Khel Mahakhumbh. Union minister and former BCCI president Anurag Thakur is also likely to grace the occasion.

The third edition of 'Khel Mahakumbh' will commence in Himachal Pradesh's Bilaspur district from Tuesday, BJP state secretary Narendra Atri said. Atri on Monday said village and panchayat level teams will compete for five sports events -- volleyball, kabaddi, cricket, basketball and athletics -- in the event to be held.
