New England captain Alastair Cook insists the pressure is on India ahead of the start of the four-Test series.
The 27-year-old opener will lead his country on a permanent basis for the first time in Ahmedabad on Thursday.
England have not won a Test series in India since 1984-85 and Cook says the home side will start as favourites. "They have an excellent home record. So history says they can deal with pressure. Our job is to put them under some pressure," he said.
"There's a lot of pressure, especially here in India, on the home team.
"But one thing they seem to have done over the years is cope with that."
Cook, who captained England against Bangladesh in 2010, says he is excited to be England captain after taking over from Andrew Strauss following his retirement.
"I feel a mixture of everything. Obviously, I'm a bit excited about what's going to happen, and a little bit nervous, but the overwhelming emotion is that I am very proud to be leading England," he said.
Cook will not be able to call on paceman Steve Finn, who has not recovered from a thigh strain, for the first Test.
Vice-captain Stuart Broad should play after overcoming a bruised heel while Tim Bresnan, Stuart Meaker and Graham Onions are battling for the final place in the pace attack alongside James Anderson.
Australia v South Africa was unsurprisingly a draw.
India are 250-3 at tea, Sehwag out for 117, Gambhir and Tendulkar also went - Swann with all three wickets.
283-4, Swann bowls Kohli!
