England return to Test cricket action with a visit from Sri Lanka to wrap up the summer.

Captain Ben Stokes has led his men to four victories and four defeats in 2024 so far, with each of their losses coming in India.

The 3-0 clean sweep against West Indies will have raised hopes of success in the post-Jimmy Anderson world, with Gus Atkinson and spinner Shoaib Bashir reaping bundles of wickets throughout the summer months so far.

Zak Crawley misses the Sri Lanka series with a broken finger, but you don’t have to miss a single moment thanks to the BBC Test Match Special team.
