Oh dude, if they play like this, they are due for another thumping whitewash in the tests too. And yes,. you heard it here from me first, a WHITEWASH FROM INDIA!!!

TBH, India now look a real good ODI team. With a full strength team (Sehwag, Yuvraj coming back, and Harbhajan also coming back sometime in the future), our ODI form is going to look so strong. Ashwin and Jadeja have formed a lethal spin combo. The likes of Rahane, Parthiv have proved good backups. Kohli just keeps growing rapidly in stature in ODI's. Raina is good enough for ODI's in any part of the world. Dhoni is probably the world's best ODI player. With Sehwag and Yuvraj's comeback, India would be the team to beat in any conditions. I am eagerly waiting for the CB series in Australia. Hope Dhoni's team do a repeat by winning it twice in a row.

indian and english players look like they come from different planets.

indians can't play bounce, and their bowlers are clueless without dry conditions to get reverse swing or spin.

england just can't play spin and there bowlers are clueless without bounce and pace off the pitch.

I suppose you could say they're pretty deadlocked at the top right now, number one ranking will swing back and forward depending on where they're playing until one throws up a couple of players of sufficient class to succeed everywhere (well, in india's case throws up some players of sufficient class that aren't in their 40s and don't break down injured every month)

Take that England. You guys are absolutely RUBBISH when playing away from home. At least we gave a tough fight in England.

 

[Gurjot95]

Yeah, the ODI series was closely contested in England and might even have won few games if no rain but this series except for 3rd match was complete one sided.

Let us be fair guys. He did not say against whom. It is possible ECB may organise a special series against Ireland( that might be dangerous) or Canada in India. And England will win it 2-1. And then still lose against India It took Australia a decade of dominance and repeated tours + bcci politics to breach the fort. England can keep dreaming.

Good job from Dhoni and Co. Hopefully now everyone will get some rest against West Indies and India can go to the Australian tour fresh.

India were not that bad in SA or Aus. Granted they could have lost in England but losing 4-0 points to a totally mentally unfit team. Murphy's law kept striking as well. England have not proved anywhere in the sub continent.

Feel sorry for Cook, the only guy I actually like in the England squad.

That really has to be one of the most one-sided ODI series I've ever seen, England were hardly competitive in any of the games. Awful.

 

[icyman]

Instead of the West Indies touring India, lets have an ODI series between India and England now on a neutral ground cause both sides seem to really gain out of their home advantage.

 

[Zidanes]

I wish there would me matches between teams on neutral grounds.
