England to Welcome India's Men's and Women's Teams for Tours in 2025

England have revealed their home fixtures for the upcoming season, with both the men's and women's teams set to face India in concurrent series in the middle of summer. In a historic announcement, the ECB has confirmed that Lord's will host its inaugural women's Test match when India makes a return visit for a one-off game in 2026.

The 2025 season will see a joint visit by West Indies men's and women's teams, while England Men will face Zimbabwe in a one-off Test before finishing the summer by hosting South Africa for ODI and T20I series.

The international season commences at the St Lawrence Ground in Canterbury on May 21, with England Women playing West Indies in the first of three T20Is, to be followed by three ODIs.

The men will begin with a four-day Test against Zimbabwe - their first international meeting since the 2007 World T20 - to be staged at Trent Bridge from May 22-25, before the white-ball teams play three ODIs and three T20Is against West Indies.

England Men's five-Test series against India will kick off at Headingley on June 20, before back-to-back games at Edgbaston and Lord's, followed by Old Trafford and The Oval.

At the same time, England Women will take on India in five T20Is, the first of which will be at Trent Bridge on June 28, followed by a three-match ODI series that will also see the teams play at Lord's.

With the Hundred likely to take up much of August, England Men's international programme will conclude with six white-ball games against South Africa before travelling to Ireland for a three-match ODI series.

"Staging England Men's and England Women's series alongside each other has been popular with fans and supported the continued growth of the women's game, with both the Ashes last year and the Pakistan series earlier this year proving successful," Richard Gould, the ECB's chief executive officer, said.

"I'm excited we'll be doing the same again for the West Indies and India series next year. Cricket fans are in for a real treat, and I hope they'll be out in force to support both men's and women's sides.

"India touring is always a big draw and a highlight of any cricket summer. The last men's Test series here was a nailbiter and I'm sure next year's clash will be just as exciting, while our women's series are always fiercely competitive. I'm delighted we'll also be welcoming both West Indies teams back again for white-ball series, following this year's men's Test series.

"To be welcoming Zimbabwe back for a men's Test Match will be a historic moment, more than 20 years since their last visit. Test cricket is so beloved in this country, and we know that we have an important role to play in supporting developing Test-cricketing nations so that this format of the game thrives long into the future.

"I'm also delighted we can confirm that India Women will return in 2026 to take on England Women in the first-ever women's Test match at Lord's. It will be a truly special occasion, and one of real significance."
