As long as we hold our own in the tests I'll be happy. I'll take a drawn series right now.
Yes, India well out of their comfort zone for conditions in the UK = get hammered by us. England well out of our comfort zone for playing conditions = surprise surprise, India look like a different team and we look out of our depth.
I'd like to think we're doing this the right way in playing these meaningless games early to help in getting acclimatised for the serious work of the Test Matches.
