England face their first Test series since the disastrous Ashes tour of Australia when they host Sri Lanka at Lord’s from today. This match is crucial to their development over the next few years with a number of senior players having retired and some new ones drafted in.
Still, the Brits are much better at the longer form of the game and on home soil we expect the likes of Alistair Cook to bounce back after succumbing to the pace barrage of the Aussies six months ago.
