England return defies terrorists

The England team which skipped the two ODI matches against India due to terror attacks at Mumbai will finally play two test matches against India. The England returned to their country after the 5Th OdI and the remaining two matches were called off due to lack of security reasons and also due to terror attacks at Mumbai.The ECB then decided to shift their test match venues to Chennai and Mohali. The old venues were Ahmedabad and Mumbai.They mainly decided to shift their venues due to terror threats and lack of security reasons.Finally both BCCI and ECB decided that the test matches between India and England will be played despite the terror threats. They said all the players will be provided with tight security and they will also tighten the security at the stadium. So the first test match of the RBS Cup will be played at Chennai from December 11-15 and the second test match of the RBS Cup will be played at Mohali from December 19-23.The England team will arrive today after taking practice at Abudhabi.
