Mumbai: India will gear up for the ICC T20 World Cup with a three-match series against Australia at home in September.
"Australia will play a number of white ball series with home games against Zimbabwe, New Zealand, West Indies and England coming either side of three T20s in India in September," said a report in foxsports.com.au.
The series will serve as a preparation for the T20 World Cup to be held in Australia in October and November this year.
Next year, Australia is also set to tour India for a four-Test tour in February and March.
India's next assignment is a five-match T20 series against South Africa at home from June 9 to 19, followed by a tour of Ireland for two T20Is.
The Rohit Sharma-led side then takes on England in the rescheduled fifth and final Test, which was postponed last year due to a COVID-19 outbreak in the Indian camp, on July 1.
