Alastair Cook insists England will be underdogs when the one-day series with India starts in Rajkot on Friday.

Despite their recent Test success, England's ODI record here is pretty poor with the last two series ending in 5-0 defeats.

However, India are hardly on top form - last week they lost a one-day series 2-1 to fierce rivals Pakistan - but MS Dhoni is hopeful of a turnaround in fortunes.
