LIVE – Updated at 15:43 England take on India at Edgbaston today as their protracted Test series finally comes to a conclusion.

The two sides went head to head last year in a five-match series which saw India take charge, leading 2-1 with one Test to play.

But a Covid outbreak in the Indian camp scuppered the final match at Old Trafford, and the series is only now being resolved.

England come into the match in much better shape than last year and full of confidence after dispatching New Zealand 3-0 under the stewardship of new captain Ben Stokes and new head coach Brendon McCullum.
