England will travel to New Zealand for a two-Test series in February 2023, the first of which will be a day-night match in Mount Maunganui.

The Test, which is scheduled to run from February 16-20, is the first day-night Test to take place in New Zealand since the two sides met at Eden Park in 2018. New Zealand won that encounter by an innings and 49 runs.

The second Test will take place at Basin Reserve in Wellington from February 24-28.

The Black Caps have a packed home schedule for 2022/23, beginning with a T20 tri-series against Bangladesh and Pakistan from October 7-14 at Christchurch’s Hagley Oval.

Following the completion of the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia, they will host India for three T20Is and three ODIs in November (18-30).

New Zealand will then travel to Pakistan and India before returning to face England and Sri Lanka on home soil.

They will host the latter throughout March and April 2023 for a multi-format series consisting of two Tests, three ODIs and three T20Is.

New Zealand Women, meanwhile, will host Bangladesh in December 2022 as they embark on their first home series under new head coach Ben Sawyer.

The two side will play three T20Is between December 2-7 and three ODIs from December 11-18.

New Zealand Cricket chief executive, David White, said: "Last summer’s ICC Women’s World Cup did so much to promote the game, and it will be great to see the White Ferns in action right around the country.

"And to have India, England and Sri Lanka touring here, on top of visits from Pakistan and Bangladesh, means cricket fans can look forward to a summer of top-quality cricket."
