ENG vs NZ: Joe Root-led England Test team is all set to face New Zealand in the first of the two-match Test series starting from 2 June at the Lord’s cricket ground in London. International Cricket will be making a comeback in England as the nation last hosted a limited-overs series against Australia in September 2020. However, England’s star cricketers like Ben Stokes, Jonny Bairstow and Jos Buttler who were recently playing in the IPL, have been rested for the two-match Test series against New Zealand.
