Cricket in India
Two ways to watch cricket in India: the IPL, the world’s biggest T20 league, from March to May, and the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, when Australia tour India for five Tests from January to March 2027, at Nagpur, Chennai, Guwahati, Ranchi and Ahmedabad.
India is where cricket is loudest: Eden Gardens under floodlights, the Wankhede by the Arabian Sea, and the biggest cricket ground in the world at Ahmedabad. Add the Golden Triangle, Rajasthan or Kerala either side of the cricket.
