It looked like a stroll in the park as England [Images] blanked the West Indies [Images] in the recent Test series, but life will be difficult against India, host captain Michael Vaughan [Images] warned his teammates.

Back in the side after a nagging knee injury that kept him out of action for a whole year, Vaughan refused to bask in the glory of the 3-0 win against a depleted West Indies and felt his side would need to raise the bar if they were to beat Rahul Dravid's [Images] men in the three-match Test series.

"They bring a batting line-up that's formidable and full of experience.

"The bowlers -- there are a couple of left-armers [Rudra Pratap Singh and Zaheer Khan [Images]] and the young [S] Sreesanth [Images] -- who I think is a real quality seamer -- and [Anil] Kumble with all his experience," Vaughan said in an interview with Sky Sports.

"They will pose probably a little bit of a bigger threat than the West Indies.

"We might have to raise our bar just a little bit to ensure we get a good series victory against the Indians," added Vaughan.

The Yorkshire batsman also sounded wary of Team India's middle order, which sports an aged look with the trio of Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar [Images] and Sourav Ganguly [Images] being on the wrong side of the 30.

"You've got no chance of getting me to say Sachin Tendulkar is ageing," Vaughan said.

"I think they are all quality players and experience is a great thing."

Vaughan said he is looking forward to an exciting series played between two quality sides in electrifying atmosphere.

"It should be a great series as they always bring plenty of supporters, there are plenty of Indians living in England, and they always cram the grounds and make plenty of noise.

"It should be a great atmosphere for our team to play in," Vaughan said.

Lord's hosts the first Test starts from July 19, while Trent Bridge (July 27-31) and the Oval (August 9-13) are the venues for the subsequent matches.
