England vs New Zealand live stream: how to watch 1st Test cricket 2022 online from anywhere – TechRadar

This first Test of an English summer at the Home of Cricket marks something of a new era for the hosts, as they take on New Zealand with a new captain, new head coach, and a new MD at Lords. Read on as we explain how to watch a England vs New Zealand live stream and catch all the Test cricket action online no matter where you are in the world.

This opening salvo of a three test series against the Kiwis ushers in the era of new managing director of England cricket Rob Key, who has named Ben Stokes as Joe Root's replacement as red ball captain.

Brendon McCullum also takes a bow as head coach, while familiar faces Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad have been recalled to the starting eleven alongside debutant seamer Matty Potts.

Amidst all the upheaval, England come up against a New Zealand side who will also be looking to turn a corner after recent poor showings. The World Test champions will likely still be reeling after a shambolic shock defeat against a County Select XI in their recent warm up match at Chelmsford.

However their main concern coming into this series will be the form of key man and inspirational captain Kane Williamson, who has looked a shadow of his brilliant best.
