India’s preparations for the ODI World Cup 2027 will commence against Afghanistan at home. The holders of the T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy, the Men in Blue look to complete the white-ball trifecta in October and November next year.
It’s been 6 months since India last played ODI cricket. The Men in Blue will aim to test a few players, with Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah all either resting or injured. It’s the perfect time to create backups for all of these players.
