Upcoming cricket matches of India: T20Is, Tests and ODIs full schedule

India will play the Asia Cup in September, host West Indies for Tests, tour Australia for ODIs and T20Is, and then host South Africa for a full series including Tests, ODIs and T20Is

After the conclusion of England tour, the Indian cricket team is on a rare break, with neither the Test side nor the limited-overs team scheduled to be in action until the start of the 2025 Asia Cup in the UAE.

 

There will be a gap of more than 30 days following the conclusion of the fifth Test between England and India. Such an extended pause is uncommon in Indian cricket in recent years.

 

This break, however, would not have materialised had India and Bangladesh not mutually agreed to postpone their white-ball series.

Asia Cup 2025 

 

India will open their Asia Cup campaign on September 10 against the UAE, followed by a high-voltage clash with arch-rivals Pakistan. Most of the players involved in the England tour are expected to be rested for the Asia Cup. Suryakumar Yadav will lead the Indian side.

 

Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will not feature in the series, having retired from the format after India’s T20 World Cup victory in 2024.
