Cricket fans will be hoping that the England vs India Second Test 2025 at Edgbaston is every bit as good as the cracking series opener at Headingley was. Can England establish a 2-0 series lead?
You can watch England vs India live streams from anywhere with a VPN.

Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum's England's won the series opener, and the big news ahead of the 2nd Test in Birmingham is the continued absence of Jofra Archer.
India, meanwhile, have a bowling puzzle on their hands. Can they really risk resting Jasprit Bumrah when they are behind in the series?
Having lost the Headingley test, India have the challenge of drawing level in the series at a ground where they have never won a Test match. India have played eight previous tests in Birmingham and lost seven of them. Three of these defeats have been by an innings.
In Rishabh Pant, Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul and captain Shubman Gill, India have a strong top order. But the tourists are faced with the problem that plagued them in their last series, in Australia, of how to balance their side.
Read on and we'll show you how to watch the England vs India 2nd Test online from anywhere in the world, and potentially for free.
Can you watch India vs England for free?
The 2nd Test won't be shown free on ICC.tv but cricket fans in Australia can watch the action live on Kayo Sports (7-day FREE trial).
Kayo – part of Fox Sports – will provide a high-quality live stream covering every ball. Just remember to use a VPN to unblock Kayo when traveling outside from Oz....
How to watch England vs India 2nd Test from anywhere
Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the cricket on your usual subscription?
You can still watch live England vs India 2nd Test 2025 streams thanks to a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. So ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best VPN on the market:
There's a good reason you've heard of NordVPN. We specialize in testing and reviewing VPN services and NordVPN is the one we rate best. It's outstanding at unblocking streaming services, it's fast and it has top-level security features too.
Mega deal: New subscribers in the U.S and U.K can get a free Amazon gift card worth up to $50/£50 on selected NordVPN plans.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Australian service, you'd select Australia from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your usual streaming site or app and watch cricket live streams as if you were back at home.

Dedicated cricket streaming service Willow TV is showing England vs India 2nd Test live streams in the U.S. Willow TV is available from a number of cable providers including Dish, Spectrum, Xfinity, Verizon Fios and more, or as a standalone service.
Alternatively, you can get the England vs India test series through Sling TV. More on that below.
Sling TV is one of the most affordable OTT services out there, and it has an unbeatable deal for cricket fans. The Desi Binge Plus and Dakshin Flex plans get you a Willow TV subscription from just $10/month, with no need to sign up to the Blue or Orange bundles first. No long contracts either. Willow TV is where you'll find the lion's share of all the cricket live streams in the U.S. which means a Sling TV sub has everything more or less covered on its own. Result.

England v India: 2025 Test series dates and results
1st Test at Headingley - England won by 5 wickets
July 2-6: 2nd Test at Edgbaston, Birmingham
July 10-14: 3rd Test at Lord’s, London
July 23-27: 4th Test at Old Trafford, Manchester
July 31-August 4: 5th Test at The Oval, London
What happened in the 1st Test?
In the 1st Test, India set an unwelcome record of being only the side in first-class history – and it’s more than 60,000 games we're talking here – to score five individual centuries in a match yet lose. Only debutant Sai Sudharsan of the top five did not make a century, and Rishabh Pant made one in both innings.
