England’s home summer begins with a blockbuster Test series against New Zealand as the two sides meet in the first Test at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground in London on June 4.
The three-match series has added significance as both teams look to strengthen their position in the ongoing ICC World Test Championship cycle. New Zealand remain one of the strongest contenders for a place in the WTC final, while England will be eager to start fresh after a difficult Ashes campaign in Australia earlier this year.
The opening Test will also mark the beginning of the battle for the Crowe-Thorpe Trophy, named in honour of New Zealand great Martin Crowe and former England batter Graham Thorpe.
