England Cricket Board announced their schedule for the 2025-26 season as both Indian men's and women's teams will be in England simultaneously in 2025. Indian men's cricket team will play a five-test series while the women's team will play a five-match T20I series and a three-match ODI series. Indian Women's cricket team will then return for a historic one-off women's test set to be played at Lords' Cricket Stadium in 2026.
Indian Men's team will start their England tour on 20th June at Headingley, Leeds, while the Women's team will start their tour on 28th June 2025.

This will be the first time both Indian men's and women's cricket teams will tour a country and play bi-lateral series concurrently.
"Staging England Men’s and England Women’s series alongside each other has been popular with fans and supported the continued growth of the women’s game, with both the Ashes last year and the Pakistan series earlier this year proving successful. I’m excited we’ll be doing the same again for the West Indies and India series next year. Cricket fans are in for a real treat, and I hope they’ll be out in force to support both Men’s and Women’s sides," Richard Gould, ECB Chief Executive Officer said.
“India touring is always a big draw and a highlight of any cricket summer. The last Men’s Test series here was a nailbiter and I’m sure next year’s clash will be just as exciting, while our women’s series are always fiercely competitive," he added.
"I’m also delighted we can confirm that India Women will return in 2026 to take on England Women in the first-ever women’s Test match at Lord’s. It will be a truly special occasion, and one of real significance,” Richard stated.
