England vs Zimbabwe (Source:@MSDianMrigu,x.com)

England will kick off their summer of red-ball cricket with a historic one-off four-day Test match against Zimbabwe, beginning May 22 at Trent Bridge in Nottingham. While the fixture may be brief in format, it carries significant weight as it marks the start of a jam-packed home season for the English side. 

This encounter also holds added importance for England captain Ben Stokes, who returns to international cricket for the first time since December 2024 following an injury layoff. 

England have named a strong playing XI for the clash. The pace trio of Gus Atkinson, Matthew Potts, and Josh Tongue is expected to pose significant challenges for the visiting batters, especially under the typically seam-friendly conditions at Trent Bridge.

On the other hand, Zimbabwe come into the match after a defeat in their warm-up fixture against a Professional County Club Select XI.
