All the key Indian players have been injured and there is hardly any chance of them being match fit on time. Golden opportunity for England to whitewash us 4-0. And seal the final spot in WTC. problem with England is, they still dont have a good spinner and Moeen isnt going to pull an Ashwin and take 25 wickets at 18 for the series. He is at best a 2nd spinner who can complement a primary spinner on spin wickets or take a few odd wickets after their pacers run roughshod on seaming wickets. Also a big problem with England is, their best player of spin in test cricket- Cook - retired. Now they only have Root and Root has been declining for a while now under pressures of captaincy, Rest of their team is faltu against spin. Frustrated 1 Link to comment

deepdynamo Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I wish India's top cricketer don't play the mindless white ball series vs SL, Zim and even Asia Cup. Concentrate on away England series in July. Arrive early, Play atleast 3 practice matches and be match ready. Remember we have pathetic record against England in England last decade. ( 0-4, 1-3, 1-4). We must fix that in 2021 series. Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Not a fan of playing SENA teams like England so often. We toured them in 2018 for crying out loud. Also needs to be cut to 4 tests. GoldenSun 1 Link to comment

Serpico Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 We should have had a continuous 14-18 month home season like in 2016-17. Easy to retain the no.1 rank that way. Now we have to win the series in england and SA to retain the rank Link to comment

Poor scheduling 9 BTB tests vs same opposition is overkill. Link to comment

We played 13 test matches on the trot along with quite a few ODIs and T20's. Link to comment

They should have scheduled england tour next yr and invited Lanka for a 3 match series. A no-pressure 3 match minnow bashing would have been ideal one month before WT20 than a stressful 5 test tour. Imagine if we cop another 1-4, how mentally cooked kohli, rohit and bumrah will be right before the world cup? Link to comment

If covid is still rampant in July, i expect similar 2 per ground 4 test series in England too. Link to comment
