The five-match T20I series will serve as a proper build-up to the T20 World Cup, which is slated to be held from 8 February to 8 March 2026.
The Indian women's cricket team will also tour Australia for a multi-format series comprising three T20Is, three ODIs, and one Test. The Australian men's cricket calendar is also dominated by the Ashes, which will be played across five matches in Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide, Melbourne, and Sydney. The rivalry between India and Australia is intense, and the T20I series will be an exciting prelude to the T20 World Cup.
The Indian squad for the Australia series has not been announced yet, but the Australian squad will be eager to put up a strong performance after their modest score of 161 runs in the 2016 World T20 match at Mohali, where Virat Kohli led India to victory. The Indian cricket team will be looking to build on their strong performance in the 2024 T20 World Cup, where they beat South Africa in the final.
The 2026 T20 World Cup will be the tenth edition of the tournament, which is now held biennially. The tournament format will remain the same, with 20 qualifying teams divided into four groups of five. The top two teams in each group will advance to the Super 8 stage, and the top two teams in each advanced group will move on to the knockout stage. India and Sri Lanka qualified directly as co-hosts, and they will be joined by the top eight teams from the 2024 Men's T20 World Cup and the best three other teams from the ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings.

India tour of Australia 2024/25
The Indian cricket team toured Australia from November 2024 to January 2025 as part of the 2024–25 ICC World Test Championship. The tour included five Test matches and three first-class warm-up matches between the two nations' cricket teams. This was the first five-match Test series between India and Australia since 1991-92.
The tour began with India A touring Australia from 31 October to 10 November, ending just five days before the official Test series started. India 'A' played two games against Australia 'A'. The first match was played at the Great Barrier Reef Arena from 31 October to 3 November, and the second was played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground from 7 to 10 November. The first Test was played at the new Perth Stadium from 22 November.
Prior to the start of the series, Mark Steketee and his replacement Liam Hatcher were ruled out due to injury and were replaced by Brendan Doggett. KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel were added to the squad for the second unofficial Test on 3 November 2024. Australia A won the toss and elected to field. On day 4 of the match, Indian wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan and the on-field umpire Shawn Craig argued about the condition of the ball, with the umpires accusing the Indian cricket team of ball tampering.
During the first Test, KL Rahul (Ind) scored his 3000th run in Tests, and Virat Kohli scored his 7th Test century in Australia, breaking Sachin Tendulkar's record of most Test centuries for India in Australia. This was India's biggest victory in terms of runs in Australia and their first win at the Perth Stadium.
In February and March 2023, Australia toured India for a bilateral Test and ODI series. The series consisted of four Tests and three ODIs. The first Test was played at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium, Nagpur, on 9 February 2023. The T20 series was played later in the year, commencing on 23 November 2023.
