India's Test schedule for the upcoming months has now been revealed. While India won't be playing any Test match at home this year for the WTC cycle, there are still 5 games left for the team at home. And these games will be against Australia, as a young Indian team gets ready for the big series.
The schedule of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2027 has also been revealed. India will be playing their last five Tests of the WTC 2025-27 cycle at home, which comes as a big positive for the team if they want to reach the finals. But there has been a major concern, which the fans have noticed over the last few years in the BGT schedule.

Do you think this is the right decision by the BCCI? 👀#Cricket #BGT #INDvAUS pic.twitter.com/A7FkYz8Ygu
This time also, the BGT won't be played at the iconic venues such as Eden Gardens and Wankhede Stadium. The last time a match was played at these two venues in the BGT was more than two decades ago. Once again, fans would be missing the iconic Test series in Mumbai and Kolkata, with hopes to get it in the future.
Our Take
This time the Border-Gavaskar Trophy will be hosted at venues such as Nagpur, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Guwahati, and Ranchi. One of the key reasons behind the BGT not having its matches at this venue could be the missing of key test players.
The last time India played in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, it saw the retirements of key Test players. Ravichandran Ashwin, Virat Kohli, and Rohit Sharma made that series their last, making it a nightmare series for the fans. Now the fans would hope that Shubman Gill would take revenge for the same.
