Cricket in India is not just a normal/regular game as it is a sentiment that permeates the lives of every Indian. Winning a match is celebrated like a national festival of India, while losing a hard-fought match sparks endless discussions in tea shops, offices and living rooms across the country.
Indian cricket has always been adorned with amazing historical moments, from the 1983 World Cup to winning the World Cup at home in 2011, and more recently India’s rise as a powerhouse across all formats. Players like our first captain Kapil Dev, the great Sachin Tendulkar, MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are not just cricketers but also symbols of pride and inspiration for millions. For fans, following the journey of Team India is like going through a whirlwind of emotions.
With a global cricketing calendar that is now busier than ever, India finds itself at the centre of the action. Between Test series, ICC tournaments and IPL, there is hardly a month when Indian players do not show off their blue jerseys or white jerseys. Each match gives us a new chapter in the story of Indian cricket, be it the aggression of the youth in T20Is, the consistency in ODIs, or the patience in Test matches played in challenging conditions around the world.
Whether you are a die-hard fan who does not miss a single ball or a casual follower who wants to stay updated, this blog post will guide you through everything you need to know about India’s cricketing journey in the coming months.
India’s recent performance has been remarkable, showing the balance between experience and youth in the team.

India’s tour of Australia between December 2024 and January 2025 has proven to be one of the toughest challenges for our Indian team. Australia won the Test match played in Melbourne by a huge margin of 184 runs. Despite India’s best efforts, the host team adapted perfectly to their home conditions. The final Test played in Sydney was no different, with Australia winning the match by six wickets. Although the results did not go in India’s favour, the series highlighted the grit of the Indian players and gave them valuable experience before the long cricket season.
India returned to form in January 2025 when England came for a thrilling T20I series. The situation was set when India easily chased down England’s total in the opening match at the prestigious Eden Gardens in Kolkata and won by seven wickets. The second T20I in Chennai was a thrilling contest, with the Indian middle order holding its nerve to secure a narrow two-wicket win. This second successive success gave India the series lead, and the atmosphere among the fans was buoyant, with the hope that the team would pull off a clean sweep in front of their enthusiastic home supporters.
England struck back in the third T20I in Rajkot, reminding everyone of their white-ball prowess. Their disciplined bowling attack limited India’s scoring chances, and despite a spirited effort from India’s top order, the hosts trailed by 26 runs. The series ended 2-1 in India’s favour, boosting their morale ahead of the upcoming ODIs and Test matches. The balance between wins and lessons learned in these matches shows the Indian team’s adaptability, while also highlighting areas that need attention, especially when it comes to coping with the pressure during crucial encounters against top-ranked opponents.
With recent results showing India’s strength and the upcoming matches promising high-voltage contests, fans have a lot to look forward to. From dominance at home to challenging overseas tours and global ICC events, Team India is all set to entertain and inspire.
So, mark your calendars and get ready to cheer for the Men in Blue as they aim to claim glory across all formats in the coming months.
I have added the latest results and a clear schedule of India’s upcoming series to the blog. Would you also like me to include a match-by-match fixture list (with specific dates and venues) for each series, or should I keep it at the series level?
