England will take on New Zealand in the first T20I  of a 4-match T20I series at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street, on 30th August 2023 from 10:30 pm onwards. Post the T20I series, the two sides will lock horns in a four-match ODI series in preparation for the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup.

England will be the favourites playing at their home but New Zealand will give them a tough battle on the field.
