India men’s cricket team 2023 schedule: Year starts with Sri Lanka series; Test series vs Australia scheduled

Indian cricket team ended its 2022 with a win in the Test series against Bangladesh and earning significant points for qualification in the World Test Championship (WTC) Finals. Indian team is one of the busiest in the international circuit and will not be at rest for a long time. The Men-in-Blue will be seen in action as soon as the time crosses into 2023.

India will have the WTC Final and the ODI World Cup on their radar in the upcoming year. India will host the 50-over World Cup, which will make the tournament more significant. On the contrary, India will have to win the Border Gavaskar Series against Australia, to confirm their spot in the WTC Final.

WTC: India, Australia favourites, South Africa on fringes for the final

India will start 2023 with a T20I series, followed by three ODIs against Sri Lanka. The squad announced on Tuesday made it clear that the BCCI is looking to overhaul the team structure and doing away with some of the senior pros who have been lukewarm with their performances.
