There's a chance, but it's not realistic. We'd need to win 7 or 8 out of 9, I think.

Two away Tests against Sri Lanka and New Zealand each, five at home versus Australia. We have to win 7 out of 9 and draw the other two. Unrealistic, but not impossible.

Looking at New Zealand's form... No.

It would need a crazy comeback performance plus a fair bit of luck.

Nope. We usually face tough opponents.
The SA whitewash really hit us hard.

I know it's nearly impossible, but I personally think our current Test side could win all the upcoming series.

We need Bumrah back and Jaiswal to somehow regain his form. Believe it or not, our biggest key right now is Gill. We saw that in the SA series too - we need him in the team and in form to pull this off.

Is it impossible? No, but can they manage that 1% chance? I don't know, but we can always hope for the best, I guess.

We need to win 7 out of 9 Tests plus get luck from the other sides, so it's pretty much a no.

The way New Zealand played in England, we're likely to get white‑washed on the NZ tour.

Without Ashwin and Jadeja, unless a surprise spinner pops up and makes an instant impact, Australia will have a huge chance of winning the series in India. They always handle pace better than spin, and we don't have anyone like Umesh Yadav to trouble them with reverse swing.
