The reigns of Gautam Gambhir has started on a middling note. While India had a cleansweep (3-0) win in the T20Is against Sri Lanka, they had a crushing 2-0 defeat in the ODI leg. This marked Sri Lanka’s first ever ODI bilateral series win over the Men in Blue since 1997, despite India having all the senior players, barring Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya.
When is India’s next match?
However, after the jam-packed action in the T20 World Cup, India vs Zimbabwe and the India vs Sri Lanka affair, the question remains – when will Team India gear up for next international assignment? Well, Indian fans have a lot to wait as India’s next match is scheduled against Bangladesh on September 19. The next series is against Bangladesh, who will tour the nation for two Tests and 3 T20 internationals.
This means India won’t be in action for next 42 days. This is a long break, especially for a nation that is accustomed of jam-packed action. Following the Bangladesh series, it will be New Zealand, who will tour India for three Tests in the second half of October. The home season will continue when England will have a long tour of India. It will feature as many as five T20Is and three one-day internationals. However, before the series against England, India will travel to Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.
