Cricket Australia has confirmed the international schedule for the 2022-23 summer for its men’s and women’s sides.

England’s limited-overs sides will be coached by former Australia women’s coach Matthew Mott.

They will play three T20 gamess before the Men’s T20 World Cup which starts on 16 October, followed by three ODIs.

Australia’s men will be hoping to defend their T20 title on home soil.

Their record-breaking women’s team will also be hoping to defend their status as world champions in the format when the Women’s T20 World Cup takes place in South Africa in February.

Australia’s schedule is particularly busy after two years of the Covid-19 pandemic, starting with an ODI series against Zimbabwe at the end of August.

The men’s Test summer begins with two Tests against West Indies in November before a three-Test series against South Africa, including the traditional Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

There are no women’s Test matches scheduled.
