Team India’s Schedule 2025: The year 2024 proved to be a mixed bag for the Indian men’s cricket team, with both highs and lows, and hopes are high for a better 2025. In 2025, India will compete in the Champions Trophy, face England in a five-match Test series, and participate in the Asia Cup.
However, 2024 ended heartbreakingly for Rohit Sharma and his team, as India suffered a 184-run loss to Australia in the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Since their T20 World Cup victory in the Caribbean, India has struggled to achieve desired results, with significant setbacks like the ODI series loss to Sri Lanka and the home Test series loss to New Zealand.

In the Test format, India registered eight wins, six losses, and one draw in 15 matches throughout 2024. As India looks ahead to 2025, the focus shifts to the final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. This match is crucial for India’s hopes of making it to the World Test Championship (WTC) final, as a win is necessary to stay in contention. A loss or draw would end their chances.
After the Sydney Test, attention will turn to the Champions Trophy, where India will play their matches in Dubai, beginning on February 20 against Bangladesh.
