1. India vs Australia
India traveled to Adelaide for their fourth match on tour against Australia. Australia scored 556 runs during their first innings with Ricky Ponting scoring a century while Simon Katich and Jason Gillespie made contributions lower down the order. Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman worked miracles during India’s innings by building an opening partnership of 155 runs – saving India from what could have been disastrous results otherwise.
Australian top order collapsed quickly and Damien Martyn scored an unbeaten century as they were bowled out for 369 runs. India quickly responded, however, with both Virender Sehwag and Mohammed Kaif making half centuries while Harbhajan Singh took six wickets en route to becoming India’s all-time leading wicket taker, overtaking Muttiah Muralitharan for number of wickets taken overall.
On Day 5, India batted, but after losing Zaheer Khan early, their innings looked in trouble at 124/7 with only VVS Laxman and MS Dhoni at the crease, along with Pragyan Ojha. But Laxman played an astonishing unbeaten 73 and turned what had looked like certain defeat into an unlikely win as he propelled India over point to win both game and series!
2. India vs New Zealand
India successfully defended their T20 World Cup crown after suffering heartbreak in 2023 with an outstanding performance to win it back on home ground, becoming the first team ever to do so. Sanju Samson won player of the tournament for scoring an unbeaten century against West Indies in semi-final and an unbeaten 89 against New Zealand in final. Jasprit Bumrah claimed excellent figures against New Zealand to finish off an outstanding tournament win for India.
England and India engaged in an exciting five-match Test series, both sides giving everything they had. England were praised for their aggressive batting while James Anderson and Stuart Broad made life difficult for India’s bowlers. India ultimately prevailed, winning 3-1 to prove that playing on home ground can indeed provide them with an edge.
3. India vs South Africa
Malan and Albie Morkel, former international cricketers who remained teammates domestically for years before clashing between dugouts. Albie currently coaches India’s bowling attack while Malan serves as South Africa’s T20 consultant consultant.
Aiden Markram and Quinton de Kock have been impressive since opening the batting. Both players hope to hit big runs against an Indian bowling attack led by Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakravarthy.
Since South Africa lost to India despite dominating for 35 overs at the T20 World Cup final, both teams know this matchup will be crucial; both know this contest between South Africa and India has much at stake; it takes place on a night game in Ahmedabad which tends to produce high scoring chase-friendly performances.
4. India vs West Indies
Shubman Gill begins by talking about tosses, noting that as long as India wins matches it doesn’t matter who wins them. Additionally, he is overjoyed at how India’s batting has performed and praises how quickly their team has gelled together.
Indian captain Rohit Sharma notes that India have successfully exploited England’s weaknesses in the batting department through their strong spin bowling attack of Ravichandran Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah, taking advantage of England’s weaknesses with strong spin bowling attacks like Ravichandran Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah’s spin bowling attack. If India can maintain this level of performance for another Test match against England they could become an overwhelming force in England.
Roston Chase joins the conversation and expresses that they knew it would be challenging batting first after being bowled out for 162. Furthermore, they have lost wickets quickly which only compounded their difficulty as batsmen. He concludes by emphasizing how important their bowling will be in attempting to attain higher scores during subsequent innings.
5. India vs Pakistan
India returned to England for a five-match Test series in 2021, taking on England with their aggressive ‘Bazball’ style of cricket and dominating them through Ravichandran Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah’s bowling. India won both Tests to take an early 2-1 lead before Covid prevented both sides from finishing out their series which ended up as a tie and they declared it as such.
History shows us that cricket matches between India and Pakistan have always had political undertones. General Zia-ul Haq used cricket matches as “cricket diplomacy” against Soviet interference in Afghanistan while Pervez Musharaff used them after Kargil.
However, following a series of terrorist attacks in India and retaliatory strikes by India against Pakistan-administered Kashmir, both nations entered a state of increased tension exacerbated by military buildup along the Line of Control in Kashmir.
6. India vs Sri Lanka
India easily defeated Sri Lanka in Dubai, extending their winning streak to six in a row and leaving them well placed to face Pakistan in the high-stakes final. Sri Lanka struggled in their middle order performances however and must improve for the final against them.
Axar Patel made an outstanding return, along with Samson’s fifty, to ensure India stayed on track. However, Axar may no longer hold the same role if Jitesh Sharma seizes upon an opportunity presented by Axar’s absence.
Nissanka and Perera attacked with ease, yet Sri Lanka were kept in check by Harshit Rana and Arshdeep’s brilliant bowling at key times. Finally, Arshdeep’s superb yorker outside off caused chaos that ultimately resulted in their two-run defeat – their third consecutive Super Over loss; one they should have won more easily.
7. India vs Bangladesh
India-Bangladesh rivalry is among the fiercest and largest sports rivalries worldwide, featuring both teams competing intensely in bilateral and ICC tournament matches, often described as an Asian Clasico.
Indian and Bangladesh have enjoyed close ties since it recognized Bangladesh as an independent country following the War of Independence in 1971. Both nations are members of SAARC, BIMSTEC and the Commonwealth and share many cultural and historical connections.
In 2014, England cricket traveled to India for a five-match Test match series. Although initially closely contested, India ultimately prevailed by winning 3-1. England were vulnerable against Indian spin bowlers James Anderson and Ravichandran Ashwin while MS Dhoni led their charge with his superb batting skills; India took home advantage with victories at their own stadium winning second and fourth Test matches by wide margins respectively.
8. India vs Zimbabwe
After numerous delays and postponements due to Covid, England returned to India in 2021 for five Test matches, starting off with one drawn match before India won by 151 runs in Test two to take an early advantage in the series. But Joe Root and James Anderson won two Tests each before England eventually claimed victory overall.
Abhishek Sharma collects a big swing from Zimbabwean Sikandar Raza at deep midwicket safely, before also taking an excellent diving catch off Hardik Pandya to dismiss Tashinga Musekiwa from Hardik’s bowling.
Indian bowler Ashish Nehra strikes quickly to dismiss Ryan Burl, for an innings-low duck score, using three strikes – hitting off stump, middle stump and leg stump before smashing them together to send him packing early in this final Test match. That put home side into an extremely strong position ahead of this decisive test match.
9. India vs England
India and England have an illustrious cricketing rivalry that dates back centuries. In 2025, their two teams met for a five-match Test series; India won their opening game at Lord’s before England made an incredible comeback over three matches to take the series 3-1 with James Anderson leading their bowling attack and Joe Root excelling with bat and ball.
The teams reconvened in 2021 for another Test series that was interrupted by Covid, with its fifth Test eventually cancelled due to lack of players being available for it.
The final match of the series took place at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai and was eagerly anticipated by fans, leaving lasting memories for decades to come. Fans will no doubt remember Jos Buttler’s triumphant finish to an extraordinary tournament for England as one of its lasting highlights.
