England starting to struggle already

Barely a week into England's tour of India, and they have begun struggling, getting shot out for 98 against a MCA XI side comprising of Mr. Unknowns. KP put up a brave face saying it didn't really matter, but 2 collapses in the last 3 games is not good for them (the previous one being the Stanford implosion).

What I find ridiculous though is that India go straight from a rip-roaring Test victory over Australia in Nagpur into a ODI series against England - massive gear switch for the Test boys in the ODI team, and non-stop cricket from here on right through until Christmas. Terrible scheduling by the BCCI.
