England to tour Australia for three one-day internationals and five T20 internationals in November and December 2026

England will tour Australia for three one-day internationals and five T20 internationals across November and December.

The eight-match trip begins with the first ODI in Perth on November 13, followed by further 50-over games in Adelaide on November 15 and Hobart on November 18.

The T20 leg starts in Melbourne on November 21 ahead of matches in Gold Coast (November 24), Brisbane (November 27), Sydney (November 29) and Canberra (December 2).

England will then visit South Africa for three Tests and as many one-day internationals from December 17 to January 15.

A return to Australia comes in March 2027 for a one-off Test match at the MCG to mark the 150th anniversary of the first Test ever played in 1877, which was also staged in Melbourne.

The day-nighter will run from March 11-15 with King Charles having been invited to attend by Cricket Australia.

His mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, attended the fifth day of the centenary Test in Melbourne in 1977.

England are likely to play a warm-up fixture before the pink-ball Test match at the MCG.

Their streamlined preparation for the 2025-26 Ashes series was heavily panned as they went on to lose that series 4-1.

The next Ashes series takes place in England in 2027 with matches to be held at Lord's, The Kia Oval, Edgbaston, Trent Bridge and Southampton's Utilita Bowl.

Headingley and Emirates Old Trafford have been overlooked this time around.

England's 2026 home summer features Tests against New Zealand and Pakistan plus white-ball assignments versus India and Sri Lanka.

The New Zealand Test series kicks things off, with the first game taking place at Lord's from Thursday June 4, live on Your Site.
