The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Monday announced Team India men’s home fixture for the 2021-22 season. New Zealand, West Indies, Sri Lanka, and South Africa for medium-length tours.
The Kiwis will travel to India immediately after the ICC T20 World Cup leaving Virat Kohli & Co no time to rest. The Black Caps will play three T20Is and two Tests against the Men in Blue. The West Indies squad then arrives for a white-ball series which will span two weeks. The depleted Lankan squad will visit the shores soon after for two Tests and three T20Is.
India will play five-match T20 series against South Africa at home in June. Don't know when was the last time they played at home in June.
