India England 1st test of the 5 match series begins at Rajkot today.

Four years back, in 2012 England posted a 2-1 win against India in a four-game rubber. On the other hand, team India led Virat Kohli have looked near invincible at home since the start of the last season. Virat Kohli would be extremely keen to improve his team's batting against the visitors with the bowlers like Ravindra Jadeja and R. Ashwin. Team England have several bright batsmen including skipper Alastair Cook and Kevin Pietersen. However, they have also been defeated by Bangladesh in a recent Test match in Dhaka and the two match series ended in 1-1 draw
