Weather looks pretty decent.

Jamie Overton makes England Test debut.

Anderson ruled out by ankle injury.

After a run of only one win in 17 Tests England have secured back-to-back victories at Lord's and Trent Bridge and head to Leeds looking to seal a clean sweep against the world Test champions.

11 years since England completed a clean sweep in a test series featuring more than 2 tests.

I must admit to being surprised that Yorkshire got this Test match, after all, they were only charged with racism by the ECB last week. Shirley they should have been suspended until the case against them was heard. Plenty of other venues.

Not a good look to allow a county cricket club charged with racism to hold a prestigious Test match.

Completely agree. Money seems to be more important than fighting fascism.

The look isn't relevant for me. The only look is forward. Yorkshire have made wholesale changes and Lord Patel has a good vision there.

Looks great today. And a nice wicket (which looks like it will crumble more than Nottingham though). Should be a fantastic match.

Another positive step in the right direction for the red ball reset.
