New Zealand unveil an action-packed home schedule

New Zealand have unveiled an action-packed schedule for the upcoming home summer, with Australia, England, West Indies and South Africa set to visit the Black Caps. New Zealand will be playing a lot of white-ball cricket, but they only have three Tests in their itinerary.
They will start the home season with a three-match T20I series against trans-Tasman rivals Australia. Later, the focus will shift to the England series that will have three T20Is and three ODIs. And then, New Zealand will host West Indies in a multi-format series comprising five T20Is, three ODIs and three Tests.
New Zealand's women will also host Zimbabwe for the first time, followed by five T20Is and three ODIs against South Africa.
