Number One Test Team Coming To Taunton
New Zealand’s first match back on English soil after the 2019 Cricket World Cup final will be at the Cooper Associates County Ground starting on May 25th.
The England and Wales Cricket Board has today confirmed that England Men will start their home international summer with a LV= Insurance Test Series against the number one ranked side in the world.
England Men will also play a three-match Vitality IT20 Series against Sri Lanka at Sophia Gardens (23 June and 24 June) and The Ageas Bowl (26 June). These matches will precede the already-announced three-match Royal London Series against Sri Lanka.
