England V India ***Clash of the Heavyweights*** Test, T20 and ODI Series

That ICC test team is a complete joke - poor old Bell always seems to miss out on credit where it's due, and as for leaving out Prior..

Is it the 2010 or 2011 side?

Also can I add - a year or two back when there were 5 Indian players in the side, everyone was up in arms about it being a biased selection. Now that there's 5 England players, apparently that's not enough? :p
 
Got tickets to the game at Durham on Saturday. Let's hope the weather holds out and some sort of contest is actually played out. I think the ODI series will be much closer that the recent tests have been.

I damn well hope so.

Even though Sehwag, Gambhir, Yuvraj, Zaheer, Harbhajan and Ishant are out, I reckon India will win it this time. It would be embarrassing if they didn't. The limited overs arena requires more talent than hard work, which is why the Indians have always been better at it than Test cricket.

Enjoy the game, it's going to be a great atmosphere. It's a day nighter right?
 
I think it will be a close game, but I think you're right India might sneak a win. I wouldn't mind seeing India bat first, Tendulkar hit his century on India's way to 300. Then for England to win it in with the last ball..... Perfect day, I can dream :p

No, it's not a day nighter, starts at 10:15. Which I guess really means 11am :)

You're gonna have a great time no matter the result. The one thing I hope for is 5 close matches. Not matches where one team doesn't bother to turn up.

10:15 is the start of play time, so you'll want to be there before then I think :)
