If you also have the same curiosity in your mind, then let us give you complete information in detail about the complete schedule, time and venue of India’s upcoming tour of England.
The Indian team will play a three-match ODI series in England in July.
Mission England will start from July 1, the first T20 will create a stir
The Indian team’s tour of England is going to officially start from 1 July 2026. However, fans will have to wait a little to see the thrill of the ODI matches, because the tour will first start with quick cricket i.e. T20 series. A very exciting T20 International series of first 5 matches will be played between India and England.
The first match of this high-voltage T20 series will be played on Wednesday, July 1 at the Chester-le-Street ground. This will be a day-night match, which will start at 10:00 pm Indian time. After this, both the teams will move to Manchester for the second T20 match. This match will be played on Saturday, July 4 and Indian fans will be able to enjoy this match from 7:00 pm. The third match of the series will be played in Nottingham on Tuesday, July 7, which will be a day-night match and it will start at 10:00 pm.
Talking about the last two T20 matches of the series, the fourth T20 International match is to be played on Thursday, July 9 in Bristol. This will also be a day-night match starting at 10:00 pm. At the same time, the last and fifth T20 match of this five-match series will be played on Saturday, July 11 on the beautiful grounds of Southampton. This final T20 match will start at 7:00 pm Indian time. In this way, in the first 11 days of July, fans are going to see the tremendous thrill of T20 cricket.
50 over stage will be set after T20
As soon as the noise of the T20 series stops, the stage will be set for the real test i.e. the three-match ODI series. After defeating Afghanistan 3-0, the Indian team will be seen challenging England at home in this ODI format. The first ODI match between the two countries will be played on Tuesday, July 14 in Birmingham. Indian fans can comfortably watch the opening match of the ODI series in the afternoon, because it will start at 3:30 pm Indian time.
After this, the second ODI match of the series will be played on Thursday, July 16 at Cardiff ground. This match is going to be a day-night match, due to which there will be a slight change in its timing. This second ODI match to be held in Cardiff will start at 5:30 pm Indian time. The last and third decisive ODI match of this series will be played on Sunday, July 19 at the historic Lord’s ground, which is called the Mecca of cricket. The final match to be held at this Lord’s ground will also start at 3:30 pm Indian time like the first match.
Pay special attention to time, there will be excitement in night matches also
Due to the huge difference in timings between England and India, fans will have to pay special attention to the timings of the matches. During the T20 series, three matches (first, third and fourth) are in day-night format, due to which cricket fans sitting in India will have to wait till 10:00 pm to watch these matches. Whereas the second and fifth T20 matches will start at 7:00 pm, which is very good in terms of Indian prime-time.
On the other hand, if we talk about the ODI series, the timing of the first and third matches to be held in Birmingham and Lord’s is 3:30 pm, which will prove to be very comfortable for the fans. Only for the second ODI match to be held in Cardiff, fans will have to sit in front of the TV at 5:30 pm. Maintaining the momentum of the resounding victory against Afghanistan, the Indian team will step on the soil of England, where captain Shubman Gill and his army will take the field with the intention of creating history.
