England vs New Zealand 1st Test Live Telecast Channel in India and England: When and where to watch ENG vs NZ Lord’s Test?

England vs New Zealand 1st Test Live Telecast Channel: The SportsRush presents before you the timing and live streaming details of the first ENG vs NZ Test.

The first Test of the ongoing New Zealand’s tour of England will begin at the Lord’s from tomorrow. The two-match Test series will be a regular bilateral series; results of which won’t count towards the inaugural ICC World Test Championship.

Lord’s, which hadn’t hosted any international match in the last English summer, will be hosting its first Test since the Ashes Test in 2019. The fact that spectators are also allowed in a restricted capacity for this match will be like icing on the cake for the fans in London.

The last time when England and New Zealand had played a Test against each other was during England’s tour of New Zealand in 2019 in Hamilton. In a series which also wasn’t part of the Test Championship, the hosts had registered a 1-0 victory.

Lord’s will always have a special place in @RossLTaylor‘s heart…
