India to Host Australia For Three ODIs in January 2020

India will play a three-match One-Day International series against Australia at home sometime in January 2020, in what is being considered a significant shift in the schedule of the Australian home season.


According to the new ICC Future Tours Program (FTP), Australia were scheduled to complete a three-match ODI tour to India in late January 2020, but multiple reports stated that Cricket Australia (CA) had requested the BCCI to shift the series to later in the year. However, the Indian board refused to budge and even reportedly insisted that the series begin several days earlier.

With the BCCI’s refusal to move from their stand, Australia have been forced to drop a home ODI series against New Zealand which would have begun after the New Year’s Test in Sydney.

New Zealand Cricket (NZC) is understood to have accepted the postponement of their series and is looking at future dates to schedule the same.
