Indian Cricket Team Schedule 2025: upcoming matches and series
Indian cricket team schedule 2025 is here. 2024 ended with the Indian team losing to Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. However, the Indian team would hope to turn the tide in 2025 with a strong schedule.
2024 was quite a mixed year for the Indian team. They won the T20 World Cup held in the West Indies and USA in June. After that, the Indian team went through a major transition. Captain Rohit Sharma and stamen Virat Kohli deviated from the shortest format of the game. As a coach, former Team India batsman Gautam Gambhir he replaced Rahul Dravid as the head coach of the team.
However, it was also the year when Team India lost a Test series at home after 12 years. India were swept clean by New Zealand as they lost 3-0 to the Kiwis. Another setback for the Indian team was the ODI series loss to Sri Lanka, a rare feat in 27 long years.
As we check the Indian cricket team schedule 2025, there is plenty of cricket to keep the fans entertained.
Team India’s 2025 campaign
Team India will begin their 2025 campaign with the final Test Gavaskar Frontier Trophy in Sydney. This Test is especially important for the Indian team as the fate of their World Test Championship finals hinges on this match. If Rohit and co. lose this match, they will be out of contention for the WTC finals.
The next series on India’s 2025 schedule will be against England. England will tour India from January 22 to February 12 for a 5-match T20I series followed by a 3-match ODI series. This is likely to be a preparation for Champions Trophy 2025 to be held in Dubai (only for India).
From March to May, Indian players will be seen playing in one of the biggest carnivals of cricket, the Indian Premier League. If it qualifies, the Indian team will play the final of the Test World Cup in June at Lord’s.
India will then start their fourth World Exam Championship Cycle with a test series of 5 away matches against England. In August, the Indian team will travel to Bangladesh for a 3-match ODI series, followed by two Tests against the West Indies at home. In October, Team India will participate in Asian Cup which will be held in T20 format this year. The Indian team’s 2025 schedule will conclude with a home tour of South Africa that includes 2 Tests, 3 ODIs and 5 T20Is.
