The year 2025 is about to end. Only two or three days remain in the year, but international cricket has come to a halt. Teams from around the world will only return to the field next year. Meanwhile, it’s worth taking a look at the Indian team’s rankings across all three formats as 2025 ends.

Team India will play next match in January, 2026

The year 2025 was a good one for the Indian cricket team. While many important and big matches were won, some were also bitter defeats. India will not play any international matches for the remainder of this year. Team India will take on New Zealand in the first ODI match on January 11th.

Meanwhile, Team India is ranked first in two of them, but significantly lower in one. Let’s first discuss T20Is, as the World Cup for this format is scheduled for February. Here, Team India holds the number one spot. In the ICC T20I rankings, Team India’s rating is 272, which is significantly better than the second-ranked team. Australia is second with a rating of 267.

ODI rankings

Team India also holds the top spot in the ICC ODI rankings. India’s rating here is currently 121. Here too, Team India is significantly ahead of the second-ranked team. New Zealand, with a rating of 113, is in second place. The Indian team will now play this second-ranked team in a three-match ODI series in January. After this, changes may occur again, although the likelihood of the Indian team’s ranking dropping significantly is very low.

Australia holds the top spot in the ICC Test rankings, currently with a rating of 124. South Africa is second, with a rating of 116. Next is England, with a rating of 112. India is next, with a rating of 104, which is quite poor. Now, Team India will have to perform well in future Tests to improve its rating.
