India, under the new Future Tour Programme (FTP), will play more matches in comparison to the previous FTP, and the games will be spread out evenly to handle players workload management. The Indian cricket team might also probably play more Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) between 2019 and 2023 as compared to the last cycle. File photo of the Indian cricket team. According to a report in Cricbuzz, the yet-to-be introduced FTP will feature 37 Tests, 67 ODIs and 54 T20Is as compared to the previous FTP which had 36 Tests, 73 ODIs and 18 T20Is. India will play 31 more games in the upcoming FTP. The report also adds India, in a bid to attend to Virat Kohlis comments about player burnout due to frantic schedule, will not play matches outside the FTP. The decision means that the Indian team might not play inconsequential series like the ongoing one against Sri Lanka. Having said that, BCCI are firm on not reducing the number of matches to reduce players workload.
