England Women are set to host India in a multi-format series across June and July with a one-off Test at Briston kicking off the busy summer - and New Zealand in T20Is and ODI series in September.
It will be India Women’s first full-fledged away series since the T20 World Cup in 2020. India had recently hosted South Africa for WODI and WT20Is. However, with South Africa dominating the series, India Women would be looking for a much-improved showing when they visit England for a much-awaited tour.
ECB Chief Executive Officer, Tom Harrison, said: "We're really looking forward to a busy summer in what is a huge year for our England Women's team, and we're very excited about hosting India and New Zealand.
"The two international series will sit either side of The Hundred, and with the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and the new Regional T20 competition running throughout the summer, it's a fixture list that offers a lot for both our players and our fans.
"With the 2022 ICC Women's World Cup around the corner it is of paramount importance that our England team is able to prepare accordingly, and with the team, also due to travel to Pakistan in October we can look forward to an exciting 12 months of international women's cricket."
