The third test will take place at Gabba this time.
The 2024–25 season schedule was made public by Cricket Australia (CA) on Tuesday. On November 22, the first test will take place in Perth.

The final away series for India in the WTC 2023–25 season.
Every team in the WTC must play six series over the course of two years, three of which must be played at home and three away. Team India's final away series in the World Test Championship (WTC) 2023–25 cycle will be against Australia alone.
India had previously visited the West Indies and South Africa. In South Africa, the two-test series ended in a 1-1 draw. India defeated the West Indies 1-0 in the two-test series.
Test series at home against Bangladesh and New Zealand: India will now have to play two Test series at home against Bangladesh and three against New Zealand. Another formidable candidate to win this series is Team India, which has triumphed in the previous 17 series at home. These test series' schedules have not yet been made public.
This season's sole home series between Team India and England ended in a 4-1 victory.
India won six of the nine WTC matches.
The World Test Championship cycle has seen Team India win two of the three series thus far. After nine games played, the squad has won six and only lost two. Another draw occurred in a match against the West Indies. With 3 series completed, Team India has 68.51% of the possible points, good for first place in the WTC points table.
New Zealand took home first place, and Australia is the current champion.
Although India has advanced to the WTC finals twice so far, the squad has lost both of those games. New Zealand won the match by eight wickets in 2021. Australia won the final by a margin of 209 runs in 2023, however. Because both Australia and India are in the top two spots in the points system, the WTC final can now take place in June 2025.
WTC: What is it?
The International Cricket Council (ICC) holds a competition known as the World Test Championship (WTC). It began in 2019. There are nine test-playing teams competing for the title. The top two teams in the points table advance to the finals following the conclusion of each team's scheduled series.
