How to win in India

On the BBC website, Tom Fordyce asks Justin Langer, Mike Gatting and Shaun Udal about the things England must do to win the Test series against India.

Preparing for the task on hand is perhaps half the battle won.

"You know it'll be hot in India, so for example you have to bring enough pairs of batting gloves so that you've always got a dry pair," says Gatting.

"Get yourself well organised and you'll have fewer dramas.

"A lot of touring India is accepting what you're getting in terms of the cricket and culture. Accept the sort of fields you're going to get, the conditions you're going to find, and select players who can deal with that."
