With the five-match series already decided after India produced a fine performance in Ranchi to clinch the series and go 3-1 up, the two sides head to Dharamsala with still a lot to play for.
England will know that a win would add a layer of respectability to the scoreline and probably do justice to the level they have competed at in the series, while a win for India with a new-look side would herald the dawn of a new era.
The conditions are expected to be very different from the rest of the series, with the cooler weather expected to assist the seamers which could make it a fairly unpredictable five days in the shadows of the Himalayas.

Kolkata Knight Riders are back in action on Friday, looking to close the gap on runaway leaders Rajasthan Royals when they host struggling Punjab Kings at Eden Gardens.
After a difficult couple of years, KKR have been back with a bang this season with a well-balanced side that has performing players throughout the side while also still having room to improve, with the likes of Mitchell Starc, Rinku Singh and Venkatesh Iyer yet to show their true ability.
Punjab Kings on the other hand find themselves second-from bottom in the table, with key players out of form yet with a potent bowling attack yet to go the distance in the tournament. They are without a batter with more than 200 runs and if they can find a solution to that, it could easily be a different story.
Phil Salt has formed an entertaining partnership with Sunil Narine and is averaging 41.50 with a strike-rate of 169.38 at the top of the order. He is tipped to be KKR’s top-scorer today and it would be no surprise to see him deliver, currently sitting second in the run-scoring charts for his side but he does have a tendency to go hard and not sustain the momentum into long innings.
Shikhar Dhawan is the other tip, and it has already been suggested that he will miss one more game through injury having been sidelined in recent matches. There is an outside chance that he appears as an impact player, but the noises have already been that he will miss out so this is too big a gamble for us to consider.
