India Set to Host England in 5 Tests, 3 ODIs, 3 T20s: Full Schedule

India and England will play a long bilateral series on either side of the new year. The Board of Control for Cricket in India on Friday announced the fixtures and that will include five Test Matches before Christmas and three One-Day Internationals and three T20 Internationals in 2017.

Andrew Strauss, Director England Cricket, said: "This promises to be a historic Test series -- the first five-Test rubber England have played in India since 1984-85 and a great opportunity for Alastair Cook and his players to repeat the memorable Test series win we enjoyed on our last trip to India in 2012.

"Equally, Eoin Morgan's white-ball squad will be anticipating hard-fought and competitive encounters against high quality opposition in both formats - with the one-day series providing excellent preparation for the ICC Champions Trophy to come at home later in the summer of 2017."

"Both sides will like to play hard cricket. England are one of the better sides in the world and there will be quality cricket even though we are playing at home," said Indian Test captain Virat Kohli.
