England all-rounder Tim Bresnan believes the Indians could be ripe for the picking during next month's one-day series, especially in conditions far removed from their World Cup win back at home.
India will be without five of their World Cup heroes, and Bresnan believes England will be a handful for the relatively new visitors squad.
"India might be favourites because they won the World Cup only a few months ago. But we're quite difficult to beat at home in one-day cricket as we showed against Sri Lanka," the Daily Mail quoted Bresnan, a saying.
"I wouldn't say any team can feel too confident against us in one-day cricket. We're improving all the time and each series is a chance for us to keep doing so," he added.
"If we hit our straps against India we should get the result we're after. We hit them hard in the Test matches and we'll be looking to do the same in the one-dayers," Bresnan said.
"India are a top side and we have to respect them in all forms, especially the shorter ones. But we're out to win every game, that's our mentality," he added.
