England continue their Test series against New Zealand on Thursday at Edgbaston as off-pitch turmoil surrounds Joe Root and co.

Root’s team drew the first Test with New Zealand at Lord’s as the hosts began their preparation for a series against India later this summer, with an Ashes tour of Australia to follow this winter.

England’s on-pitch performances have been overshadowed by the emergence of historic racist and sexist tweets from bowler Ollie Robinson, who has been suspended pending an investigation.

New Zealand will be without injured captain Kane Williamson, meanwhile, due to a tendon issue in his left elbow.

Here’s all you need to know about the second test.
