Preview

With the World Test Championship Final spot at stake, the New Zealand team is all set to turn their fortunes against England for the first Test of the three-match series, slated to commence on November 28 at Hagley Oval, Christchurch. This rivalry, which has been revered for ages and has showcased a plethora of memorable matches, will once again be on display as the Bazball style of England will be locking horns against the resilience of the Kiwis.

The hosts head into this series after their clean sweep against Rohit Sharma and his men in India, a feat not ever achieved by a team since the 1999-2000 series when India suffered defeat against South Africa on home turf. In addition, no team had ever produced a clean sweep of India in India in a three-match Test series. With this resounding victory, New Zealand is in contention for the 2025 World Test Championship Final spot.

On the flip side, Ben Stokes and his men, despite having the second most points in the World Test Championship table, are out of contention due to their lower percentage points after their nine losses but aim to spoil the party for the 2021 WTC winners with some good results heading into the series.
