  • England have a clearly consistent history of toppling higher-ranked teams while, at the same time, falling to lower-ranked ones across all formats of the game of cricket. They are highly effective disruptors of cricket hierarchy, so to speak. Also, Joe Root has debuted against India, had a wonderful record against it, and been laudably leading his test team.

    India, on the other hand, have lacked consistency, performed contrary to what's expected of them, and had lady luck on their side during their wins. Also, after Sachin Tendulkar Virat Kohli is the least impactful captain, as exemplified by his IPL record as well as Ajinkya Rahane's contrasting attitude and latest test captaincy.

    In summary, we don't expect anything from India from their history. We are in for surprises, either way: pleasant or unpleasant.
