India vs England, Leeds Weather Today Live Updates: Hello and a very warm welcome to News18 CricketNext’s weather coverage of the first Test between India and England at Headingley.

First days are always crucial in England, and this one is particularly important. It’s not just the inauguration of the new Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy but also the start of a new era of Indian cricket, under the 25-year-old Shubman Gill. For England, too, it’s a high-stakes moment with Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum hoping to kick off the third World Test Championship cycle on a winning note to build towards a first final.

But England has seen several such moments get washed out by rain. What about today?  According to weather.com, the chances of rain for the three sessions are quite low, almost negligible. However, the fun of playing cricket in England is that the weather here is quite fragile — it’s randomly sunny and suddenly overcast, which tends to affect how the ball behaves. We’ll keep you updated about all the happenings here!
