Cricket Australia has released the schedule for the men’s team for the 2023-24 season.
The fixtures will begin on October 1st when Australia, as the World Test Championship finalists, commence the schedule with a three-match Test series against Pakistan.
The Test series against Pakistan will be a part of the next cycle of the World Test Championship and is set to begin in Perth on December 14th before moving to the MCG for the traditional Boxing Day Test.
The final match of the series will take place at the SCG in the new year of 2024. Following the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 in India, Australia will stay behind to play a white-ball series against India.
Shortly after that, Australia will host the West Indies in a two-match Test series at the Oval and the Gabba. The second Test match will be the only Pink Ball Test of the summer.
The three-match ODI and T20I series against the West Indies will round off the home summer for the men’s team. The men’s test schedule has been planned in such a way that those players who specialise in white-ball formats will become available for much of the BBL season.
