The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has finalized the schedule for India’s next six One Day Internationals (ODIs) to be played before the year ends. 

The tour begins with a three-match Australia leg:

• 1st ODI on October 19 in Perth

• 2nd ODI on October 23 in Adelaide

• 3rd ODI on October 25 in Sydney

India returns home to host South Africa for another three-match series:

• 1st ODI on November 30 in Ranchi

• 2nd ODI on December 3 in Raipur 

• 3rd ODI on December 6 in Visakhapatnam 

These fixtures mark an important window for India to gear up ahead of the 2026 ICC Champions Trophy. The Australia leg will test India in foreign conditions, while the home series against South Africa offers a chance to experiment with combinations and build momentum in front of home fans.
