India se preparará para la Policía Mundial T2026 en casa con series entre Nueva Zelanda en enero de 2026.

India Cricket Team will take on New Zealand in a white-ball series in January 2026 ahead of the T20 World Cup. As many as eight venues will host matches with the T20 WC also in India. The three-match ODI series will begin on January 11 in Baroda, while the five-match T20I series will begin on January 21 in Nagpur and will end on January 31 in Trivandrum.

It will be a packed end of the year for Team India. After a two-match Test series at home, the white-ball team will travel to Australia for a three-match ODI and five-match T20I series. With Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli retiring from Test and T20I cricket, it will be a delight for fans in Australia to welcome them.

Following the series, India will take on World Test champions South Africa at home in a two-match Test, three-match ODI and five-match T20I series. Before the T20 World Cup, India’s preparations will conclude with the New Zealand series at home.

Final series before T20 World Cup

While the dates are not yet finalised for the T20 World Cup 2026, ICC has set a February-March window. However, with SA20 2026 (Dec 26-Jan 26) and ILT20 2026 (Dec 2-Jan 4), some of the Kiwi players might miss the series. New Zealand will also play a full series against West Indies at home in November-December.

But for India, it will be an opportunity to finalise combinations as the squad submission deadline for the T20 WC will likely be in mid-January. Those five T20Is will help Suryakumar Yadav and coach Gautam Gambhir to finalise the XI and few gaps.
