India won the toss and elected to field in the seventh and final One-Day International against England at Indore on Saturday.
As expected, the home side omitted the out-of-form Virender Sehwag and Mohammad Kaif along with Munaf Patel and Harbhajan Singh.
Ramesh Powar is the lone regular spinner in the side, which has four medium pacers in Irfan Pathan, S Sreesanth, R P Singh and V R V Singh.
England, who won the sixth ODI in Jamshedpur by five wickets, rested Andrew Flintoff for the second successive match. The team will be led Andrew Strauss.
Teams:
India: Rahul Dravid (captain), Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, Robin Uthappa, Venugopal Rao, Dinesh Karthick, Ramesh Powar, Irfan Pathan, S Sreesanth, Rudra Pratap Singh, Vikram Singh.
