English cricket team in India and Sri Lanka in 1984–85


The England national cricket team toured India in 1984-85, playing a five-match Test series and five match ODI series versus India. Shortly after they arrived in India, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated; with cricket in India then out of the question for a few weeks, the English team went to Sri Lanka to play a couple of warm-up matches.
The tour was nearly called off after the Deputy High Commissioner of Western India, Percy Norris was shot dead on 28 November in Mumbai, the day after hosting a reception for the England team.
