Siddharth Kaul says he excited to join Jasprit Bumrah and Suresh Raina in England.

Team India is all set to tour England in a few days time for a full-length series. It will be a pretty tough tour for the visitors given the fact that they predominantly have a poor record in England especially in their last couple of visits.

India lost seven out of its last 11 Tests played in England. However, they have a pretty good side this time around and can pose a strong challenge to the No 1 ODI side in the world.

It will be a gruelling battle between the two top sides in the world. India has performed quite brilliantly in the recent past irrespective of formats. They defeated South Africa in their territory in both ODI and T20I series. They lost the Test series narrowly but gave enough indication that a little more practice would have helped them win their first Test series on the South African soil.

India will meet England in a three-match ODI and T20I series before they square off in a five-match Test series. India is currently playing Afghanistan in the one-off Test in Bengaluru. However not all the players are part of the squad and hence have got their opportunity to finetune their skills ahead of a tough tour.

Impressive performances in the Indian Premier League paved the way for the selection of some new stars. Meanwhile, some old stalwarts have also been called up.

Courtesy a brilliant performance for the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL, Siddharth Kaul was given his maiden break in international cricket.

He got picked for both ODI and T20I series slated in England. Along with Kaul, Suresh Raina has also made a return to the ODI side. He was part of the T20I squad which toured South Africa early in the year. However, he is making an ODI comeback after October 2015.

Kaul, Raina and Bumrah clears the yo-yo test

The two ODI specialists took to their twitter handle to reveal that they had passed their Yo-Yo test and cannot wait to get on the plane.
