England men and women will play India and West Indies at home in 2025 as part of a bumper summer of cricket.
Ben Stokes’ men’s Test side will face India in a five-Test series between June 20 and August 4, with Heather Knight’s women’s team taking on the same nation in five T20 internationals and three one-day internationals from June 28 to July 22.
Before that, England’s men’s white-ball squad will welcome West Indies for six matches in late May and early June with the women’s team to tackle the Caribbean outfit at a similar time.
England men begin their summer with a one-off Test against Zimbabwe at Trent Bridge from May 22-25 as the African team tour the UK for the first time since 2003.
The men’s home summer will conclude with six white-ball fixtures against South Africa in September before a three-match limited-overs trip to Ireland later that month.
It has also been announced that England will play India in the first women’s Test at Lord’s in 2026, which England and Wales Cricket Board CEO Richard Gould says “will be a truly special occasion and one of real significance.”
Gould added of the 2025 summer: “Staging men’s and 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.

“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.
“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.”
