Well one reason is IPL's champions league cricket is also starting from Dec 3 and England playing only 2 test since few years.
Thanks VishalVasani for timetable of the matches and yes India will win. They are in good form now days and Mishra good benefit to Indian team.
Warm Up Match Eng vs Mumbai Mubai = 223/7 England 98 All out England lost the Practice match against Mumbai.England all out in just 98 runs.Mumbai won by 124 runs.
Its called a cool welcome of a competitor..... British Players should improve their performance for an interesting series.. otherwise we will win easily and the real fun of game will finish..
I think .......not i think upcourse india.....because england not performed well in tourgame and also india is in good form......so we will win the series.......
I never mind whether India win or England. My Tendulkar is not playing in this series ..... rested by BCCI BCCI knew Tendulkar got tired of last Test series when all other players don't have any problem. I think Dilip Vengsarkar has still some hope to play cricket in the place of Sachin.
That's great! Today I read in local news papers that Dhoni might not play first ODI in Rajkot. I hope he will play that match.
