Jamshedpur: With the seven-match series against England already sewn up, the Indians would be looking at personal milestones to motivate themselves up for the sixth match here tomorrow.
Irfan Pathan, who has emerged as an all-rounder under the tutelage of the Australian coach Greg Chappell, may have some more spring in his steps when he takes the cherry as he is three short of reaching the magic figure of 100 wickets.
Pathan, who made his debut against Australia in Melbourne in 2004, has so far grabbed 97 wickets in 56 matches.
When he adds three more scalps to his kitty, the Baroda player would become the 78th player in the world, and the 11th Indian to reach the landmark.
However, with the Indian team management looking to rest their key players with the side having taken a decisive 4-0 lead, it remains to be seen whether the left arm seamer gets to play in Steel City.
Harbhajan Singh, who would be playing his 122nd match for India, is also three wickets away from bagging 150 wickets in the shorter version of the game.
In the batting department, the stylish Yuvraj Singh may be itching to cap his impressive showing in recent matches by completing 4,000 runs in limited overs cricket.
The left hander is on 3,951 runs after playing 146 matches, and would become the ninth Indian and the 62nd player in the world to become a member of the 4,000-club if he scores 49 runs.
For the visitors, Paul Collingwood is 67 short of 2,000 runs in ODIs.
