Cricket Australia (CA) have unveiled the full international schedule for the 2023/24 home summer, with the men's side set to square off against Pakistan and West Indies.

With the all-important World Test Championship (WTC) and The Ashes on the horizon in the middle of this year, the Aussies will return home for two red-ball and two white-ball series.

The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Adelaide are pushing for the New Year's Test, despite the upcoming fixture being confirmed for the Sydney Cricket Ground. 

The dominant women's side will host West Indies and South Africa, with a standalone Test scheduled for mid-February in Perth.
