India have won all seven matches they have played so far in the World Test Championship. They have a few limited-overs assignments before they play further in the World Test Championship. This is majorly due to the fact that the ICC T20 World Cup will be held in October 2020 in Australia.
India's next series in the World Test Championship will be the tour to New Zealand where they will take on the Kiwis for 2 Tests in February-March 2020. The first Test will be played between February 21-25 at Wellington while the second Test will be played between February 29- March 4 at Christchurch.
