England v India series prediction

[Durhamfootman]

You think Dhoni will die?

is that what it would take?

[Arthur Crabtree]

I... think so...

Maybe cholera?

[Durhamfootman]

Tentativitis?

[Arthur Crabtree]

I think that will end Broad's series after Lord's. If necessary, Dhoni will get someone to donate his tentatives to him in a surgical transplant.

[Durhamfootman]

well, he can certainly afford it

[Arthur Crabtree]

So it's going to be 5-0, 3-0 or 2-2.

5 people think India are gonna win 2 or more tests....

[Arthur Crabtree]

Yes, support for an India win is beginning to gain traction across the internet. Duncan Fletcher is now warning of the perils of over confidence, and extolling the variety of his pace attack. India's tours of NZ and SA are being re-evaluated for their positive aspects. If this poll allowed changed votes, i think a lot more people would be predicting an away win. Meanwhile, talk in the home press is of pressure on the captain and concerns on the effect of the schedule on the pace attack.

Still, we'll find out soon.

0-0 but I couldn't vote for that.

[DiligentDefence]

1-1 Not convinced by either side's bowling.

[Alviro Patterson]

Yes

I reckon England will win 3-1. Both teams have obviously got their issues - India unable to win away from home, and England... well... unable to win anywhere. I just think that the close series loss to Sri Lanka will galvanize the Poms, who do have an advantage of having an Australian in their line-up. And the English bowling attack do seem more likely to take 20 wickets in a match, although I do think that India will manage it once or twice. The first sign of trouble with England, however, will result in the usual knee-jerking, with KP making as much noise as he can about coming back in from the cold. Both captains are under huge pressure in this series, but I'd say that Cook is more likely to lose the armband than MSD, who seems to have a "job-for-life" deal. That said, I think Virat will have a big series, subsequently making a huge case for a changing of the guard. Rain will come to England's rescue on one or two occasions (as usual), Following the third Test in this series, Alistair Cook will be in the last 12 months of his captaincy.

Just me and FTS predicted correctly.

I went for 2-2 so I'm disappointed India didn't win the final test.

[Gingerfinch]

Went for 2-1 England. India really were poor once they won a game.
