The Covid-19 pandemic postponed a lot of cricket tournaments much to fans’ dismay but luckily for them, BCCI just released the Indian cricket team’s schedule for the next two years and it is absolutely jam-packed.
With Virat Kohli at its helm, the team will be playing cricket non-stop for the next fifteen months until the 2022 World Cup in Australia, which was initially scheduled for 2020, but ended up being postponed due to the pandemic.
Thanks to Australia hosting in 2022, India will host the 2021 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup from October 17 to November 14, as scheduled. India will also be hosting the 2023 ODI World Cup as well.
In total, three World Cups will be held during the years from 2021 to 2023, including two World T20s and the ODI World Cup. Here is the full schedule for the Indian cricket team for 2021 to 2023.
