India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Wednesday ruled out the possibility of batting up the order, saying there is no vaccant slot for him in top four positions.

"It's a difficult choice to make. We have Viru (Virender Sehwag) and Sachin (Tendulkar) opening the innings, Gauti (Gautam Gambhir) at No 3 and Yuvraj at No 4. The next slot available is No 5," Dhoni said ahead of the second one-dayer against Australia on Wednesday.
