“This is not an easy place to tour, and India’s confidence will be sky high from winning at the Gabba to complete a series victory in Australia earlier this month. I can tell you that they had supporters within this England team throughout that decisive match in Brisbane,” Broad wrote in his column for  The Daily Mail.

He further said England will need to focus on their own strength and not just about Indian skipper Virat Kohli. Virat is making a comeback to the team after a brief layoff due to the birth of his daughter.
