Cricket fans across India and the United Kingdom are in for a treat as the India Women’s Tour of England 2025 kicks off with the first T20 International on June 28. The five-match T20I series sets the stage before three ODIs, making this opening clash a gateway to some world-class women’s cricket.
India, led by captain Harmanpreet Kaur with Smriti Mandhana as her deputy, is ready with a dynamic squad of young talent eager to make history. Meanwhile, England, under the leadership of Nat Sciver-Brunt, also boasts a formidable lineup. Players like Tammy Beaumont, Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Sophia Dunkley, and Sophie Ecclestone, who have been in strong domestic form, make England a tough competitor.
To date, India has played 199 WT20Is and won 108, including eight victories over England. In comparison, England has contested 215 WT20Is, winning 155 and securing 22 wins against India.
Historically, England Women have held the upper hand in T20Is. During their last bilateral T20I series in 2023, England claimed a 2-1 victory on Indian soil. While England will enjoy the home advantage in this series, India will aim to acclimatize and fine-tune their squad ahead of next year’s T20 World Cup in England.
Head-to-Head Record
Total T20I Matches: 30
England Wins: 22
India Wins: 8
England enters the series with momentum, having won all three T20Is against the West Indies Women earlier this summer. In contrast, India’s last T20I appearance was in December 2024, when they claimed a 2-1 series win over the West Indies on home soil.
Notably, India has since played a three-match ODI series against Ireland in January 2025, securing a clean sweep with a 3‑0 victory. Following that, they triumphed in the Sri Lanka Women’s ODI Tri-Nation Series, topping the round-robin stage and defeating Sri Lanka by 97 runs in the final at Colombo.
