England have announced the schedule and fixture list for their limited-overs home series against Australia, which will be played behind closed doors in September.
According to the schedule, the touring Australia party will play three T20I and as many ODIs. The ODIs will be a part of ICC’s new ODI Super League.
Australia will arrive in the UK on August 24 and first travel to Derby, before being shifted to Southampton after the end of the third Test of the ongoing England-Pakistan Test series. The team will feature in a 50-over intra-squad practice game, after which they will play three practice games ahead of the first T20I on September 4.
