The conditions in England could take some time to acclimatise for the newer players and even the fielding could need some tweaking. The open grounds in Ireland, which caused the ball to get breezy swirls, resulted in as many as three dropped catches inside the first powerplay in the opening game.

Against a strong English outfit that just thrashed Australia, any lapse in fielding could be detrimental to the way the end result pans out for the Indian team. In conditions that the English team will play host, the bowlers would require the fielding to back them, and maintain the standards that have been synonymous with the Indian unit of the last few years.
