Head coach Brendon McCullum says New Zealand wickets will be better suited to England's aggressive brand of cricket, dubbed "Bazball", after his side were crushed in the final two Tests in Pakistan on turning tracks.
Test captain Ben Stokes indicated Tuesday he would be ready to make an England limited-overs comeback.
England next return to test action in July against the West Indies, after this year's Twenty20 World Cup.
"I don't give too much away as the series is going on but I'm always man enough to say we got beaten by the better team," Stokes told reporters.
India's five-wicket victory on a spiteful track in Ranchi was not really a cakewalk, thanks to England's never-say-die spin attack.
"On this occasion, their skill was better than ours," Stokes told reporters.
"This England team are hell bent on doing things their way, and 'saving test cricket'. They are giving test cricket a shot in the arm because they are so exciting," Michael Vaughan wrote in Britain's Daily Telegraph.
England's bold tactics under Stokes and coach Brendon 'Baz' McCullum have revitalised Test cricket and India, who have not lost a Test series on home soil since 2012, were always going to be a litmus test of that philosophy.
The on and off-field issues going on in the 10th edition of the Bangladesh Premier League, India making England taste their 'Bazball' tonic, an inexperienced West Indies making their presence felt at the Gabba, Liverpool having to look at life after Jurgen Klopp and the Australian Open awaiting a new Men's singles champion -- there are events aplenty for fans to dive into. Here, in this episode of The Daily Star's multimedia show, 'Pitch Perfect', we try to discuss briefly the current sporting scenario.
The Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes era of England cricket is off to a perfect start with the team winning all four of their Tests so far under the new regime.
