(Reuters) -Revenge will be on Joe Root's mind when he leads England in a five-test series against Virat Kohli's India beginning in Nottingham on Wednesday, kicking off a new World Test Series (WTC) cycle in the process.

Both sides are smarting from the mauling they received from New Zealand in June with England losing at home and India in the WTC final in Southampton.
