England vs India Test Series odds
Home advantage plays a huge role in the Test match betting
We’re in for a cracker of a series when the two best Test teams in world cricket meet this summer, and punters can expect a huge frenzy in the England vs India betting.
An incredible 99 Test matches have been played between England and India over 28 series and the first match of the 2011 England vs India Test series at Lords will become the 100th time the two countries have met in Test cricket.
Remarkably, games against India have accounted for almost 10% of England’s Test match history and patriotic punters can be safe in the knowledge that England have come out on top more often than not.
England cricket odds
Away from home England have managed just 11 wins in 51 Tests and if this England vs India Test Series was in India, you’d have to fancy India as the favourites.
But the Test series is on home soil for England and while India may be the number one Test team in the world, England enter the series as the favourites and it’s easy to see why.
England have managed 34 wins in 99 Tests with India with 23 of those wins coming in the 48 Test matches played on home soil.
India have managed just the five Test match wins when touring England and while the unpredictability of the weather brings the draw into play, England should be dancied to do well.
India cricket odds
We know their record in England is poor but you can’t write off a team that contains the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Gautam Gambhir and Yuvraj Singh.
India have managed an incredible 8069 runs in their last 22 innings in England and we can expect high numbers of runs across the series.
England’s batting is their strong point so draws should be expected, but if Broad and company can fire with the ball in hand, expect a euphoric England come the end of the five-Test series.
