Today marks the traditional starting point of the English summer as England take on West Indies at Lord’s for the first Test of a three-match series. In years gone by this would be an eagerly anticipated match-up and the chance for English cricket fans to see some of the best players in the world. That opportunity still remains but now those players at the top of the game are wearing the whites of England rather than of the Caribbean outfit.

England, who hang on their number one ranking by the smallest of margins, are the overwhelming Cricket Betting favourites to win the opening Test and the series. But the West Indies have shown the hallmarks of an improving side in recent outings and should not be underestimated.
