India vs. England 3rd Test at Birmingham is really in trouble due to wide spreading of the rioting from London to Birmingham and Liverpool. Reportedly, Team India’s some public schedule is expected to be changed due to chaos and violence wave across UK.
The India vs. England 2011 3rd test of nPower Test series will attempt to get started today (Wednesday, August 10) at 11:00 AM local time or 06:00 AM EDT. The test continues through Sunday, August 14th.
India is desperately looking for a victory in 3rd test after England dominated them in the first two tests. MS Dhoni, Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar will look for strong performances to avoid losing the third test in England. However, the current odds favour England to win the series here in their home territory.
England is definitely eyeing to dominate again and secure the World No. 1 ranking in Test cricket. Their fans are certainly hoping for some good news after all that has been going on lately with the riots and the stock markets. On the other hand, India will try to bounce back from their earlier disappointing losses.
A key aspect to keep in mind for this specific test match will be the fact England has won four of five Tests against India at Edgbaston, Birmingham. The last time the two teams met was in 1996 though.
