It will be followed by a blockbuster chapter in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, when Australia will tour India for five Tests, starting on January 21 in Nagpur. The other four tests will be held in Chennai, Guwahati, Ranchi, and Ahmedabad, respectively.

Team India lost the last BGT series in Australia, and now they have a chance to retain the trophy. This series is also important to stay in the race for the World Test Championship 2025-27 final.

The ICC Cricket World Cup 2027 is the next big event for India. The BCCI has made sure that India play enough 50-over matches to get ready for the mega event. It will also give the fans a chance to watch more of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, who are only active in ODIs.
