The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on announced the 2019-20 home season which will include 5 Tests, 9 ODIs, and 12 T20Is. This is a much lighter load than a couple of years ago when the home season featured a blockbuster 13 Tests. These Tests are probably part of the New ICC Test Championship plan, so BCCI is limited on how many it can arrange. It will be interesting to see how the ICC Test Championship works out.
The season will start with the Freedom Trophy for the Gandhi-Mandela series played between India & South Africa in September, followed by a T20I & Test series against Bangladesh in November.
The West Indies will then tour India in the month of December and following suit will be Zimbabwe and Australia in January. The 5 Tests to be played in the 2019-20 season will be a part of the Test Championship.
A complete breakdown of the home series fixtures are mentioned below.
