Cook wins toss, invites India to bat in 5th Test

England captain Alastair Cook won the toss and elected to bowl against India under overcast conditions in the fifth and final cricket Test at the Oval, here today.

India have made two changes to the side, bringing back paceman Ishant Sharma in place of Pankaj Singh while Stuart Binny takes place of Ravindra Jadeja.

England are unchanged. The toss was delayed by 30 minutes due to wet outfield. India are trailing the series 1-2, having won at Lord's and lost at Southampton and Manchester.
