England agree to Test series, says India

England have confirmed they will play a two-Test series in India later this month, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said on Monday.
The schedule for the series has once again been revised with the first Test in the southern city of Chennai from December 11-15 and the second in northern Mohali from Dec 19-23, a BCCI statement said.
The three-day tour match from Dec 5-7 has been cancelled, it added.
A formal announcement from the England and Wales Board (ECB) was expected later on Monday.
"The ECB has informed BCCI that England are agreeable to tour India and play two tests," the statement said.
"The ECB will be sending their security consultant for discussions with the authorities in India before final clearance is given for the tour."
England cancelled the last two one-day internationals last week and flew home following the deadly attacks on Mumbai by armed militants which killed at least 170 people.
