Ahead of the upcoming five-match Test series against India, England's Joe Root feels that the opponents have all bases covered.

"You look at India's progression as a team across all formats, and they have all bases covered - great seam attack, talented batters and a very strong spin attack," Root told Sky Sports.

Root also expressed confidence in his side by saying that they have a good home record, but will also have a huge respect for what Team India will bring into the series.
