Team India is in Bangladesh, where they have lost their second one-day international series, just like the 2015 tour. The final match of the fifty-overs series will be played today at Chattogram. Then the men in blue will play the two games in the red ball format, which will be India's last this year.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the fixtures of the Indian Cricket Team till March 2023. India will play three series at home, which will also mark the start of the home series for the men in blue side.
The team will play the limited overs series against New Zealand and Sri Lanka first, and then they will lock horns against The Aussies in the red ball format.
The Lankan Tigers will tour India again, just like the last year in 2021. That time Sri Lanka played the series of the shortest format and red ball matches.
There were no 50 overs m atches last time. In 2023, Sri Lanka and India will play three ODIs and T20Is
3rd January 2023 - 1st T20I in Mumbai
5th January 2023 – 2nd T20I in Pune
7th January 2023 – 3rd T20I in Rajkot
10th January 2023 – 1st ODI in Guwahati
12th January 2023 - 2nd ODI in Kolkata
15th January 2023- 3rd ODI in Thiruvananthapuram
The Kiwis toured India last year after the T20 World Cup 2021 edition played in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). New Zealand had played two Test matches and three T20 Internationals against India on that tour.
The men in blue side also recently travelled to the Kiwi nation for the limited overs series after the T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia.
India won the series of the shortest format. But The Blues lost the ODI series. This tour of India in 2022 was mainly affected due to the rains.
The Aussies toured India in 2017, and they also won the first Test match, which was played in Pune. But they lost the series and have not won a Test series in India since 2004.
India holds Border-Gavaskar Trophy after winning the back-to-back series in 2019 and 2021. So this red ball series will be a fascinating duel between the two great Test giants.
