The group's exhibitions started to enhance in the 1960s, beginning with their first arrangement win over England in 1961-62. Amid this time, India's solid record at home began to grow, in which the group won an arrangement against New Zealand in 1965-66 and drew arrangement against Pakistan, Australia and England. In 1967-68, India won their first arrangement outside the subcontinent against New Zealand. 

Sunil Gavaskar made his introduction for India in the West Indies in 1970-71 and quickly had an effect, scoring a sum of 774 runs for the arrangement and helping India to a 1-0 arrangement win, their first ever win over the West Indies. Together with made players like Bishen Bedi, Srinivas Venkataraghavan, Erapalli Prasanna and Bhagwat Chandrasekhar, Gavaskar framed the core of ostensibly India's strongest Test collaborate to that point in time. India's win over the West Indies was trailed by home and away wins over England in 1971 and 1972-73.

The Test arrangement triumph in 1986 in England stayed, for about 19 years, the last Test arrangement win outside subcontinent. At that point came the rise of Mohinder Amarnath and "Mr. Trustworthy" Dilip Vengsarkar who was the undisputed No. 1 batsman in 1986-87.

The rise of Sachin Tendulkar and Anil Kumble in 1989 and 1990 was to messenger a period of Indian cricket that was commanded by stars and individual brightness. Sachin Tendulkar got to be seemingly the best batsman on the planet, alongside Brian Lara of the West Indies and in 1998, Sir Donald Bradman himself commented that Tendulkar batting style was like his. Mohammed Azharuddin, who captained India for the majority of the 1990s, demonstrated a commander whose principle quality, if not his motivational abilities, was a capacity to stay cool under weight. Azharuddin's masterful batting however declined amid the later years of his captaincy, and his best innings amid this time were for the most part when playing at home. The Hyderabadi beautician's vocation finished after 99 Tests when he was banned for life in the wake of being embroiled in the match-altering outrage. Under his captaincy, the Indian group got to be essentially phenomenal at home, with enormous wins against groups, for example, England, New Zealand, South Africa and Australia. Their exhibitions abroad, be that as it may, left a ton to be sought. 

Towards the end of 1999, the Indian group was in flux. In spite of the fact that they had performed well in the 1999 World Cup, the winter was checked by a lamentable visit to Australia which uncovered the Indian group's shortcomings when playing abroad, stamped with a loss of type of the greater part of the batsmen, aside from Tendulkar and the recently developed VVS Laxman. After Tendulkar quit captaincy and Azharuddin was banned for match-altering, Saurav Ganguly assumed control as commander, and the New Zealander John Wright got to be mentor. 

Ganguly's captaincy proclaimed another time in Indian cricket. It started in the celebrated arrangement against Australia in 2001, when Steve Waugh's solid group was vanquished 2-1 in a Test arrangement in the wake of having taken a 1-0 lead at Mumbai. The arrangement is best known for a surprising turnaround by the Indian group in the Kolkata Test, when VVS Laxman, Rahul Dravid and Harbhajan Singh's execution took India to triumph after they had taken after on. This arrangement denoted a defining moment in the Indian group's fortunes, and furnished the group with the help they profoundly required. This was trailed by stellar exhibitions by the group when playing abroad, with Test triumphs coming in Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka, West Indies, England, Australia, and a celebrated arrangement triumph against main adversaries Pakistan in 2004. The arrangement in England in 2002 is charged as Rahul Dravid's arrangement, as he turned into the top scorer for the Indians, with hundreds of years taking a stab at Trent Bridge in Nottingham, Headingley in Leeds and a celebrated 217 at the Oval in London. This was trailed by a thrilling win in Australia at Adelaide in 2003, where Dravid, VVS Laxman and Ajit Agarkar scripted a fight against eminent loss triumph after the group had surrendered 556 runs in the first innings.

Their exhibitions helped decreased India's reliance on their top firearms in one-day cricket, and a 7-batsman strategy added to India's victories in the restricted overs amusement, reaching a state of perfection in their coming to the last of the 2003 Cricket World Cup. In the rocking the bowling alley division, India uncovered a plenty of quick knocking down some pins ability, with Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra, and later Irfan Pathan and L Balaji standing out. The veteran Anil Kumble turned into the most elevated wicket-taker for India in the wake of surpassing Kapil Dev, furthermore passed the 500-imprint in March 2006. His rocking the bowling alley exhibitions abroad enhanced significantly, and he had significant impact in India's abroad exhibitions in England, Australia and Pakistan. Harbhajan Singh likewise gave him incredible organization in the twist office, and at home the two playing in coupled turned into a commonplace sight. 

Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag were chosen to play for the ICC World XI in the 2005 "SuperTest" against Australia. 

In 2005, Indian cricket was again covered in discussion. After a to some degree moderate season stamped by a plunge in group execution taking after the well known Pakistan arrangement finished, the drilling employment went from John Wright to the Australian Greg Chappell. Saurav Ganguly, whose batting structure had gotten hammered in that year, was included in a spat with Chappell about whether he ought to be proceeding as skipper to decrease weight on him. This was trailed by Ganguly being dropped from the group and Rahul Dravid assuming control as commander. While Tendulkar, Sehwag and Dravid shaped the backbone of the Indian batting, the transitioning of players like Yuvraj Singh and Mohammad Kaif prompted the development of more youthful stars like Suresh Raina and MS Dhoni. India, however have constantly battled in the pace office with the main unmistakable pace bowler impending was Zaheer Khan
