Notably, with the Oval blockbuster against England, India registered a historic milestone by winning the fifth match of a Test series on foreign soil for the first time ever. Also, India’s win in the final Test by just 6 runs was their narrowest-ever Test victory in terms of runs.

India’s home Test season kicks off in October

Meanwhile, the Indian Test team will now take a short break before their next assignment. They are set to play four home tests later this year—two against the West Indies and two against South Africa. The West Indies series will be held from October 2 to 14 in Ahmedabad and Delhi.

After two Tests against the West Indies, the Indian team will face South Africa from November 14 to 26 in Kolkata and Guwahati. In 2026, India is also expected to tour Sri Lanka and New Zealand for two Test matches each. The exact dates for those tours are yet to be announced.

Apart from that, India will host Afghanistan for a one-off Test, but that match won’t count towards the WTC 2025-27. India’s current WTC cycle will end with a five-match home series against Australia, starting in January 2027. The full schedule for the Test series is yet to be announced.
