Australia is preparing for a summer like no other as they're set to welcome India for three months of action starting November 27.

Virat Kohli and his men will kickstart their series abroad in the one-day format, playing three matches across Sydney and Canberra.

Both camps will remain in the capital for the opening T20 international fixture before returning to the SCG for the remaining two 20-over matches.

The four match test series will begin in Adelaide come mid December with a day-night fixture before tests in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

India will play two tour matches against the Australia A side prior to the Adelaide test, with the first of the two matches at Drummoyne Oval, Drummoyne and the second a day-night test at the SCG.
