The much-awaited England vs India Test series begins on June 20 at Headingley, Leeds, marking the start of the new World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 cycle. As fans gear up for the blockbuster contest, many are searching for ENG vs IND live streaming and where to watch ENG vs IND 1st Test online and on TV.
India step into a new era in Test cricket, led by Shubman Gill, after the retirements of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravichandran Ashwin. Veterans Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane are also absent from the squad. The young side will be aiming for their first Test series win in England since 2007.
England face a few injury concerns but will look to capitalise on home advantage. India, meanwhile, will manage Jasprit Bumrah’s workload carefully, with the premier fast bowler expected to play only three Tests after his recent back injury during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.
The previous England vs India series in 2022 ended 2-2, with India producing memorable victories in the second and fourth Tests. This time, with a new captain, fresh faces, and WTC points on the line, the ENG vs IND 2025 WTC Test series promises top-quality cricket.
