England vs West Indies series
Touted as the 'James Anderson Test,' as the veteran England pacer is set to retire from international cricket, the 3-match series against West Indies will kick off on Wednesday (July 10) at Lord's in London. The first Test will surely be entirely about James Anderson, as it should be, as he bows out of international cricket as a living legend of the game.
After playing 188 Tests, Anderson is on the verge of reaching a couple of milestones, one of which involves Australian legend Shane Warne. He will hope to end what has been an exceptional career on a high. Indian fans can watch all the action live from 3:30 PM IST on Sony Sports Network TV, with live streaming on the SonyLiv app and website. Fancode is also streaming the three-match Test series.

About the Test series:
After the Lord's Test, the focus will shift to Trent Bridge and Edgbaston as the host nation looks to test the waters with a slightly new pace bowling attack, with Chris Woakes being the only senior bowler. As for the Windies, they will have their own set of issues with the bat like any other visiting team has in England. However, they will aim to build on their bowling performance at the Gabba in the absence of senior pacer Kemar Roach.
