India will start as favourites in the series against England which starts February 5 in Chennai. India will be high on confidence after registering a famous 2-1 victory against Australia. Despite missing out on big names, a young and inexperienced India put up a show like never before and breached the Gabba fortress. With a pool of new talents, the fast-bowling department will be up against seasoned campaigners. England, on the other hand, is expected to put up a tough fight. A high octane-series awaits.
