The Black Caps will play only one test series in the upcoming home summer of cricket

Six tours for the men and women's teams have been confirmed, with a three test series for the men against England in November and December starting the calendar.

The Black Caps then play Sri Lanka and Pakistan in T20 and ODI series, before visiting the latter in February and March for a tri-series and the Champions Trophy.

The White Ferns start with three one-dayers against Australia in December, who return for three T20s in March.

They also meet Sri Lanka for a mixed format series the same month.
