The Indian team had a memorable start to 2021 and it ended on a good note for them as well. The Indian side started with a win at The Gabba which also helped them to beat Australia 2-1 in a Test series. They culminated the year by noting up a Test match win at Centurion, becoming the first Asian team to win at the venue.
In between Team India won at The Lords and at The Oval against England to achieve the highs of Test cricket. Losing the WTC final and an early exit from the T20 World Cup remains the team’s lowest point this year.
Looking forward to 2022, India are scheduled to play some tough games both at home and overseas. They will play under two different captains now with Virat Kohli leading the Test side and Rohit Sharma leading the white-ball side.
Winning the T20 World Cup and the postponed fifth Test against England remains the two top priorities in Indian cricket next year. They will play some tough and competitive cricket both at home and in overseas conditions.
Team India will be hosting South Africa, Sri Lanka and West Indies in a bilateral series next year. While they will travel to England to play the postponed fifth Test match followed by a T20I and ODI series.
