Riding on the highs of Aussie win, is India going to be eager to surrender its home advantage against Englanf by preparing pitches where our spinners will fail ?

Why don't England prepare a brown pitch ? An Indian pitch to cater for Indian players.

I hate England and they deserve nothing but a 4-0 humiliation. Don't care what pitches they prepare, no other result is acceptable.

Me too. I don't feel sorry for Aussies whatsoever. they deserve to get thrashed but I prefer to see India thrash englund more severely. 

 

I can't stand England. I hope we pump them again like in 2016.

South Africa is my number 2 team. My partner is South African. I am part South African too. 

 

Love saffers. But between India and saffers I always 'root' for India. 

 

I dislike poms the most followed by kiwis with their fake nice guy persona bullshit. 

I will root for Aussies always vs England and n.z 

 

So;

 

1) India

2) south Africa

3) probably Aussies

4) paks. Hate their fans but love their people. 

 

Don't care about the rest.

Many Indians have soft corner for NZ even though they defeated us in some really important matches. We also like South Africa, West indies. 

 

We grew up hating Australia because they're such a good team. It was always envy and awe of 'that' generation. Now it's more competitive and really healthy.

 

England - we can't stand those pri*ks. Good for nothing team. These days they have some good players like Buttler, Stokes but their snobbish attitude was there for as long as I remember. I hope we can bury Clouderson for good and make him bowl to death in this series.

NhA defo not n.z can't stand this pricks.

 

India needs to take them seriously. That's all. Had we upped the intensity level vs kiwis like we did vs Aussies we would have beaten them last year.

I think most of our players are not equipped to fight in New Zealand. ALso doesn't help that we go there and play a test match without practice or the next day.

Historically they have ben a top team dude, forget pre-WW-II times, they have been a pretty good side in every decade apart from 90s. Quite successful in India as well. Now they have picked up even in white ball formats, could add a few more ICC trophies this decade.

Ók I've watched them only since 2000's and they were pretty sh*t until the emergence of Swann, KP, Cook, Anderson, Broad. Now they're good in LOIs but bad in tests though.

Hate is a heavy word. But would love to see them beat, they were lucky with their score line when India played them in their home. 

[Lone Wolf]

Don't know what is it about England that they always have been our bogey team.. Even In white ball formats we have never been able to put them away completely considering how sh** they used to be.  They absolutely thrashed us in an ODI tri series in Australia with an god awful side in 2015 before WC.  Those were quite depressing days as an Indian fan for me.  

Hopefully we will Finally get the monkey off our back in coming 9 tests both home & away against them.  They are a stronger side in limited overs but I expect T20 series to be close provided selectors select on merit.  ODI team is still work in progress & needs an influx of youngsters & some improvement from pace attack..  Our weakest format currently.

Do you even remember our team in that series? Rahane, Rayudu and an aging Raina with Stuart Binny opening the bowling.

I think he was probably being humble and nice to visitors.  But this is a sport and we need to challenge, other argument is sports persons will challenge, but that does not mean everyone else bends over as well. Just a very soft attitude from the curator, must be 'I will write to the Hindu' kind of guy.

Seriously dude, India used to dominate England yes they had the odd success ( kp cook swan but they were their to  their lol tram is very good) but they are not that strong. AUS and SA even NZ in NZ used to Br our teams that was dominance and now we are giving back( to Aus and Sa and Nz at our home). ENG VS India is nothing like that, yuvi used to become yuvi x 20 when ever he plays England. Its a good time to start dominance over Eng that I agree.

Rahane & Bunny were our top performers that series...  That was joke worthy squad I agree.  Kohli looked bang average on spicy Gabba pitches..  Dhawan had a flop show in three ODI overseas tour back to back.  Very very Pathetic line ups were selected.  If I had any sway I would drown those genious selectors in Bay of Bengal..  That was a team of no hopers & another average team wiped tge floor with us

Last decade we have had limited success against them. Tide should turn in all likelihood though.  Goal seems to be to beat England in England..  Hopefully our bowling attack stays fit all along.
