Rohit and Dravid are expected to take part in the training session on the eve of the match i.e. on Wednesday (March 6).
Having won the last three Tests, India have already taken an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match. However, there is still a lot to play for as the valuable World Test Championship points are at stake.
The hosts will look to finish the series on a high and consolidate their spot at the top of the 2023-25 WTC points table.
