England will make it two international matches in different countries on consecutive days for the first time in 92 years on Thursday — and they face the prospect of a repeat next winter Jason Roy hit a ton to help the one-day side beat Holland in Amsterdam on Wednesday But the modern headache of cramming series into a 10-month timeframe, avoiding a clash with the all-powerful Indian Premier League, means two separate sides will be on duty again within 24 hours in early 2023. The second Test in New Zealand next February begins on the same day that an England XI have their first warm-up fixture in Bangladesh. England's Test side then begin their third Test against New Zealand in Leeds on Thursday England did play back-to-back games in 2020, when separate squads were necessary because of Covid, and a 50-over defeat by Ireland in Southampton preceded an enthralling Test match win over Pakistan in Manchester.
