It is getting more and more evident that some teams can only play well in certain conditions. India can only play in the subcontinent, England generally play better on bouncier and quicker conditions and the list goes on. India was number 1 after playing a few home matches and lost it after a few away series and England look like it could go down the same route.
How feasible do you guys think it would be to get some English players to maybe play in an Indian domestic league (4 day matches) and perhaps a few Indians come here and play and get used to these conditions...Or perhaps a swap for 2 months (e.g. Strauss for Kohli from their respective counties). Dravid came here for a while and was the only player to shine in the recent series.
Could the ECB and BCCI make a deal? Would the players mind being away from their families even more. Personally, I think it would be difficult, but would make both sides better.

Excellent idea, but maybe each country could focus on the 'next generation' and enter an U-23 team into each others domestic structure?

This is not only England or India problem. Most teams only play well in certain conditions. Its only Australia on their peak (few years back) and West Indeis in 1980's who could play well in all conditions and used to win at home & away.

With IPL ,BPL and other rubbish filling the vacant schedule its a difficult proposal to implement.
