SINCE 2019, India have played and won numerous bilateral series in all formats of the game. These successes, unfortunately, didn't translate to multi-team tournaments as they had not won a single trophy during the period.

To be more specific, they last won a three or more team tournament in September 2018 when the Men in Blue lifted the Asia Cup beating Bangladesh in the final. That edition was played in ODI format. In T20Is, the last time they brought home the cup from a tournament involving more than two teams was March 2018. They had then won a thrilling final against Bangladesh at the Nidahas Twenty 20 Tri-Series in Sri Lanka.
