India will return to England next year for a five-Test series, just like in 2014, after Pakistan kickstart England’s home summer with two Tests at the end of May.

While Pakistan will play no limited-overs matches, Australia will arrive for five ODIs and a lone T20I in June, before India visit for three T20Is, three ODIs and five Tests over two months.

India’s Tests will start on August 1 in Edgbaston before moving to Lord’s, Trent Bridge, Southampton and The Oval. Pakistan, who drew their previous series in England 2-2, will play their Tests at Lord’s from May 24 and Headingley from June 1. All seven Tests will be day Tests.

Before Australia’s limited-overs tour, England will also visit Edinburgh for a one-off ODI against Scotland on June 10. The ODIs against Australia will begin on June 13.
