Indian cricket team’s recent England tour may have ended with a thrilling Test series, but the Men in Blue are set to return to English shores soon—this time for white-ball action.

Following the conclusion of the five-match Test series, which ended in an exciting 2-2 draw, Indian players headed home and even celebrated Rakshabandhan with their families. However, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has now confirmed the dates for India’s next visit.

The 2026 tour will see India and England face off in a five-match T20I series followed by three ODIs.

The limited-overs battle will begin with the first T20I on July 1 in Chester-le-Street, followed by matches in Manchester (July 4), Nottingham (July 7), Bristol (July 9), and Southampton (July 11).

Once the T20I series wraps up, both teams will shift focus to ODIs. The first match will take place in Birmingham on July 14, the second in Cardiff on July 16, and the final showdown at the iconic Lord’s on July 19.
