India vs England: 4 Reasons why England start as favorites in the T20I and ODI series

1. Current Form

England have whitewashed Australia in the ODI and T20I format

Looking at the current form no team would like to face England. Recently, England whitewashed Australia 6-0 in the limited overs. Any team which is in form is always dangerous. The way they are playing their cricket and dominating all the teams is something which India will have to be careful of. They have won 6 consecutive ODI series at home. Such is the dominance of the England side.

Their top 3 batsmen are in red-hot form as they just keep piling the runs. Roy, Bairstow, and Hales all average above 50 in the recently concluded ODI series against Australia. Their spinners too have been in great form as both Ali and Rashid have taken 12 wickets each in 5 games. Harsha Bhogle has said that if the World Cup was to start today then England would start as favourites to win the World Cup. Then going by his word and looking at their current form they definitely start as favourites in this T20I and ODI series.
