England vs New Zealand live streaming: How to watch 1st Test in India, UK and Australia?
Know how to watch the live streaming of the England vs New Zealand, the first Test match of the 5-Test series, slated to begin on June 2 at the Lord's.
England will commence their journey under new Test captain Ben Stokes and new Test head coach Brendon McCullum with their first Test match against New Zealand slated to be held at the Lord’s Stadium. The England Men’s Test team is scheduled to face the Kiwi squad in a three-match Test series that concludes on June 27. The build-up to the series has been contrasting for both teams as New Zealand are the reigning world Test champion, while England are going through a slump in the format.
The home team is coming off a 1-0 loss to West Indies in the three-match Test series, which was followed by the resignation of Joe Root as the captain. The year started for the team with a humiliating 4-0 loss to Australia in the Ashes 2021-22 series. On the other hand, New Zealand are coming off a 1-1 draw in the two-match Test series against South Africa in their last assignment. Having said that, here’s a look at the live streaming and other key details regarding the match.
