India cricket – Latest news and insights
When you talk about India cricket, the sport that unites a billion fans across the subcontinent. Also called Indian cricket, it includes everything from international tours to domestic leagues. A major pillar of this world is the Indian cricket team, the national side that represents India in Tests, ODIs and T20 Internationals. Overseeing the sport is the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the governing body that organizes tours, the IPL and sets selection policies. In the fast‑paced format, T20 International, short 20‑over matches that draw massive TV viewership plays a key role, while neighboring rivals like Sri Lanka cricket, a frequent opponent in bilateral series add spice to the calendar.
What’s happening on the field right now?
Recent weeks have seen the Indian side juggling a packed schedule of T20 and ODI fixtures. A headline‑grabbing development was the injury to Sri Lanka’s pace ace Dushmantha Chameera, who missed the series against India due to a respiratory infection, prompting Asitha Fernando’s call‑up. That reshuffle forced the Indian camp to rethink its bowling strategy, especially in the fast‑bowling department where depth can decide a series. Fans are also keeping an eye on emerging Indian talents who could fill the gap when senior bowlers rest or pick up knocks.
Beyond international matches, the Indian Premier League (IPL) continues to feed the national team with fresh firepower. Players who shine in the IPL often earn quick promotions to the Indian cricket team, creating a pipeline that links domestic performance with global exposure. The BCCI’s scheduling of back‑to‑back series, combined with the IPL’s commercial boost, means the squad constantly evolves, balancing experience with youthful exuberance.
All of this means the story of India cricket is never static. Below you’ll find a curated set of articles that break down the latest series updates, player health news, board decisions and the impact of domestic leagues on the national side.
