After winning the Champions Trophy 2025, India will tour Bangladesh for a white-ball series starting August 17. The series includes 3 ODIs (Aug 17, 20, 23) and 3 T20Is (Aug 26, 29, 31) in Mirpur and Chattogram. India has won 18 of 25 ODIs and all 3 T20Is played in Bangladesh so far.
With the conclusion of the Champions Trophy 2025, which India won in Dubai, the Men in Blue are set to begin a new chapter with a white-ball series in Bangladesh.
