    What's the story

    After scripting history Down Under, India are set to host England in a four-match Test series.

    This will be the first international assignment in India post the COVID-enforced break.

    Notably, England are touring India for the first time since 2016/17 when they lost 0-4.

    Meanwhile, India will be aiming to extend their dominance on the home soil.

    Here is the statistical preview.

    A look at the head-to-head record

    India and England have met in total of 122 Test matches so far.

    England have had the edge over India, winning 47 of them.

    While India have won 26, as many as 49 resulted in draw.

    However, India have been dominant at home, having won 19 of 60 matches.

    Meanwhile, England have secured only 13 wins in India.

    Dominance

    India's dominance at home since 2010

    Interestingly, England are the only side which disrupted India's incredible home run in the previous decade (2010-2020).

    Under former captain Alastair Cook, England handed India a 1-2 series defeat in 2012/13.

    Ever since, India have won 12 consecutive series at home.

    Since losing to England, India have won a record 27 Tests, losing mere one.

    During the period, five Tests were drawn.
