The England v India series in the UK this summer was very much a one-sided affair with punters quickly realising which way the wind was blowing, astutely putting big bets on the home side. India’s lacklustre performances and injury woes really cost online bookmakers dear as they paid out big money for heavy backing of the home nation, will it be different with the ODI series on the sub-continent?

After a very one-sided series of test matches, which saw England reach the top of the world test rankings for the first time in their history, the shorter version of the game, ODIs or one day internationals are now the focus.

England won an exciting fifth and final one-day international against Sri Lanka by 16 runs on July 9 to take the series 3-2 - and they're now 2/1 with 888sport to defeat India in their next summer challenge.

Now England embark on a four-match Test series against the world’s number one team, India – and are at 2/1 to win with India favourites at 11/4 and 11/10 the draw all at 888sport.

After the test series, consisting of 4 fixtures in July and August, England and India will be competing in 5 fixtures for a One Day International (ODI) series that will take place up to the middle of September and will contribute to the World Standings of both sides in this form of the game.
