The international cricket calendar in July 2025 is packed with bilateral series and tournaments taking place around the world. India is currently on a high-profile tour of England for a five-match Test series as part of the 2025–2027 ICC World Test Championship, with matches scheduled at venues such as Edgbaston (2–6 July), Lord’s (10–14 July), Old Trafford (23–27 July), and The Oval (31 July–4 August)[1][2]. Australia is touring the West Indies, with their next Test match against the hosts underway from 3–7 July at St. George’s, followed by further matches and a T20I series later in July[1][4].

The 2025 Indian cricket team calendar is headlined by major events including the ICC Men’s Champions Trophy in Pakistan/UAE in February–March and the ICC Women’s ODI World Cup hosted in India, with exact dates still to be confirmed. The Indian Premier League (IPL) season ran March–May, and India’s men’s team began their World Test Championship cycle against England in June. The Indian women’s team has begun the year with a home series against Ireland and is prepping for the Women’s World Cup later in 2025[2].

Other significant international series include the Zimbabwe Tri-Nation Series, Pakistan’s tours of Bangladesh and the West Indies, and New Zealand’s visit to Zimbabwe.
