Weather at Leeds Cricket Ground: The SportsRush presents before you the weather prediction for the third ENG vs NZ Test Day 1.

The last match of New Zealand’s ongoing tour of England in the form of a third Test will commence at Headingley from today. Unlike their England tour from last year where they had won two and lost none out of their three Tests, New Zealand have lost both their Tests this time around.

However, in spite of this imminent match being a dead-rubber, there is no reason for it to not be an intriguing contest. Considering how well the first and second Tests were, a similar encounter irrespective of the winner would be pleasing for fans watching from the stadium and across the world.
