It was not long back when England were humiliated down under in a series which is undoubtedly the oldest and most important series in the cricketing world. Alastair Cook is out of form now. Jonathan Trott is suffering from "stress related illness" as England go face to face against Sri Lanka for a 5 ODI series. Probably the first time in the last 4 years, England will be underdogs at home. Sri Lanka look a solid, strong ODI side and start as favourites for this series. With some horrible decisions from ECB, for eg. not giving Alex Hales a chance in ODIs, England will have to work hard, if they are to win this series by any means. I see this series 4-1 in favour of Sri Lanka. Since this is probably the last ODI series in England for the trio of Jayawardena, Sangakkara and Dilshan, i reckon they'll put up a good show this time. All the best to both the teams.
