Swann said England would love to bat first here but also made it clear that irrespective of the outcome of toss, England, trailing the seven-match series 0-2, would have to win the match to stay afloat in the series.

"Any team that wins the toss would love to bat first here. It happens so in most of the ODIs. But either way, we have to win this match, irrespective of whether we bat first or bowl first," he said.

Swann didn't rule the possibility of a rejig in the batting order. "I'm not sure but after the last two games, we are looking at where we can make improvements. If there are areas where we can really improve, I'm sure we'll do that," said the youngster.

Some of Swann's teammates, including Pietersen and Flintoff, are reportedly worried with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) failing to manage a deal for them in the Indian Premier League and the miffed players are yet to sign the central contract.

Swann, however, dismissed notions that IPL had become a thorny issue in the dressing room as well.

"Look, I have not been approached (to play in IPL)," he quipped. "I guess one or two players in the team want to play and it's fair enough considering the money involved. I think they are talking to their agent, IPL and the board to sort things out. It's not an issue in the dressing room," he said.

Asked about Ravi Bopara's absence in the nets, Swann said the Essex player was down with 'Delhi Belly' and stayed back in the hotel.
