England chased down 371 at Headingley to secure victory in the opening Test. Opener Ben Duckett excelled with 149 in his second knock to set the hosts on their way.

New India captain Shubman Gill tasted defeat in his maiden gambit as the permanent leader of the team despite five centuries from his side throughout the match and some devastating bowling spells from Jasprit Bumrah.

2025 is set to be a huge year for Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum, who must prove their 'Bazball' philosophy can deliver success as well as entertainment across five Tests against the tourists and then the Ashes in Australia.

Fans will be excited to see whether England can repeat their display against India when the play moves south to Edgbaston.
