The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Thursday (August 22) announced the fixtures for India's Test series against England in June-July 2025 via X (formerly Twitter). IND vs ENG five-match Test series in the UK will commence with the 1st Test starting on June 20.
The five-match Test series between India and England will be part of the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 cycle and is scheduled to take place right after the conclusion of the WTC final next year.

The last Test encounter between India and England was during England's tour of India earlier in 2024, where Ben Stokes and his team suffered a 4-1 series defeat. England will look to avenge the humiliation they faced from India in 2024.
A notable aspect of IND vs ENG Test series is that Rohit Sharma is expected to continue to captain Team India even after next year's WTC Final, as indicated by the BCCI's inclusion of his photo with the schedule. This gives fans a hint that Rohit will retain the captaincy next year.
The first Test match between India and England will take place in Leeds starting June 20th onwards, with the final Test scheduled for July 31. In addition to Leeds, India will play Test matches in Birmingham, Lord's, and Manchester.
