If you guys could beat Australia in some ODI's last year, i'm sure they have a shot against a team who didn't make the Super8's in the World Cup. I wouldn't write England off yet. There have been some changes too. I actually think it'll be a decent series. I'm not expecting a whitewash.
I saw during the coverage yesterday, your media is quite cruel. Someone was reading the paper. Big page on Prior's dropped catch. Not very supportive.
You are basing your prediction juist on the basis of 2 series - The CB Series and the WC 2007 .
If you leave the CB Series out, England were absolutely shocking in ODIs and are still definitely not a better ODI side than India.
Although India had a dreadful WC, they have been a far superior ODI outfit than England.
We have had a fair share of ODI success in 2006 (at least better than England), which a record number of consecutive run chases , a 5-1 drubbing of England, 4-1 drubbing of Pak, 6-1 thrashing of SRL.
WE did have a rough patch in ODIs starting from the Windies tour in 2006.
Our most recent ODI series was a 2-1 win against SA in bowlerfriendly Irish conditions while England`s most recent ODI series was a 2-1 loss against a weak West Indian side at home.
As they say, you`re only as good as your last series.
