India Tour of New Zealand 2026: ODI & Test Schedule, Timings in IST
India’s 2026 tour of New Zealand runs from late October to the end of November: five T20Is, five ODIs and two World Test Championship Tests. Here is the full schedule with Indian and Pakistani start times, and the results so far.
T20I series: India won 3–2
India won the first three T20Is, starting with a 4-wicket win in the 1st T20I at Christchurch, before New Zealand won the last two, finishing with a 7-wicket win in the 5th T20I at Hamilton on 1 November 2026.
ODI series schedule and results
All the ODIs start at 3:00 pm New Zealand time, which is 7:30 am IST, 7:00 am PKT and 02:00 UTC.
- 1st ODI, Eden Park, Auckland, 4 November: India won by 5 wickets (DLS method).
- 2nd ODI, Sky Stadium, Wellington, 7 November: India won by 4 runs (DLS method).
- 3rd ODI, Seddon Park, Hamilton, 10 November: abandoned without a ball bowled.
- 4th ODI, 13 November.

India lead 2–0 with two to play, so New Zealand can at best draw the series. Two of the games so far were decided on the DLS method; our DLS guide explains how those targets were set.
Test series (World Test Championship)
The two Tests start at 11:00 am New Zealand time, which is 3:30 am IST and 3:00 am PKT the same day (22:00 UTC the evening before).
